QUESTLOVE TUNES UP 'BLACK WOODSTOCK'
2021
Overview
When the celebrated musician discovered footage from the little-known Harlem Cultural Festival in 1969, he thought he'd just create a standard concert documentary - then COVID forced him to delve deeper During the same summer as Woodstock in 1969, Nina Simone, Sly and the Family Stone, Stevie Wonder and more played a series of free concerts in Harlem intended to be a celebration of Black pride. More than 50 years later, Ahmir \"Questlove\" Thompson tells the story of the 1969 event known colloquially as the \"Black Woodstock\" in a new film heading to Sundance entitled Summer of Soul (...Or When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised). On a lunch break from his day job providing the music for The Tonight Show with The Roots, the musical polymath spoke with THR about how his directorial debut evolved from a straight concert film to a story of how a crucial moment in Black history was nearly erased.
