Starring: Dorinda Drake, Barbara Bland-Acosta, Darryl Lewis
In his acclaimed debut as a filmmaker, Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson presents a powerful and transporting documentary-part music film, part historical record created around an epic event that celebrated Black history, culture and fashion. Over the course of six weeks in the summer of 1969, just one hundred miles south of Woodstock, The Harlem Cultural Festival was filmed in Mount Morris Park (now Marcus Garvey Park). The footage was never seen and largely forgotten--until now.
“ 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.” David Fear, Rolling Stone
These FREE summer events are made possible with support from the City of St. Catharines, the Downtown Association and the Department of Canadian Heritage. Fresh Air Flicks is sponsored by CAA Niagara.
