Enjoy a summer cooler and be prepared to move your feet when we screen this Oscar-winning, music-filled documentary that chronicles the historic 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival.
Summer of Soul (...or When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised) is a high-energy, critically acclaimed documentary that chronicles the historic 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival, featuring electrifying performances by Stevie Wonder, Gladys Knight & the Pips, Mahalia Jackson, Nina Simone, The 5th Dimension, The Staple Singers, Sly & the Family Stone, and more. Winner of the 2022 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature.
"Summer of Soul is both a tribute to the artists and, just as importantly, their audience -- which is what makes it not just a great concert film but a great documentary, period," says Rolling Stone. "Imagine Soul Train poured into a blender with Woodstock and you'll have an idea of the glimmering gem that is Summer of Soul," says L.A. Weekly.
Directed by Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson.
Rated PG-13 | Runtime: 1 hour 58 minutes
