진저 베이커는 ‘크림’과 ‘블라인드 페이스’에서 활동한 전설적인 드러머였지만 이후 주목할 만한 활동을 하지 못하다가 1972년에 나이지리아로 이주했고, 그곳에서 펠라 쿠티가 이끄는 ‘아프로비트’라는 밴드를 만나 연주했다. 다시 나이지리아를 떠난 뒤 약물에 의존해 살며 폐인이 되어 가던 그는 결국 73세의 나이로 남아프리카 공화국에 정착하여 어린 신부와 결혼하고 39마리의 폴로 경기용 조랑말을 기르며 살아간다. 드럼 연주에 묻어 있는 진저 베이커의 삶을 담기 위해 심혈을 기울인 이 작품에는 에릭 클랩튼, 스티브 윈우드, 카를로스 산타나 등 여러 음악가들과의 인터뷰도 소개되고 있다.

A Deusa Negra is a love story that spans two centuries. In 18th century Yorubaland, Prince Oluyole is taken prisoner in the course of internecine warfare fanned by overseas slave traders. He is sold into slavery in Brazil. In present day Nigeria, at his father's deathbed, the young Babatunde promises to go to Brazil and search for traces of their once-enslaved ancestors. Beginning with a Candomblé ritual, his journey takes him ever deeper into this culture and, in a dream-like sequence, affords him a deeper understanding of his ancestors' suffering and powers of resistance. Balogun effortlessly links present with past, real with magical worlds and discourse with trance. The hypnotic atmosphere is also heightened by the music of the Nigerian drummer Remi Kabaka, which plays with repetitive patterns and distortions.
