The film covers the Harlem Cultural Festival which took place the same summer as the famed Woodstock festival and boasted an attendance on par with that concert. The footage has remained in storage for the past 50 years, keeping this incredible event in America’s history lost – until now.
Cast: Stevie Wonder, Sly and The Family Stone, Nina Simone, B.B. King, the Staple Singers, the 5th Dimension, David Ruffin, Mahalia Jackson, Ray Barretto and Gladys Knight and the Pips.
