SUMMER OF SOUL

SUMMER OF SOUL

Acclaimed musician Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson makes his directorial debut shaping a treasure trove of footage from the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival. The film features a Who’s Who of Black performers representing the music of Motown, Latin America, Africa, gospel, blues, and more. As a master DJ, Questlove knows exactly how to mix classic performances with personal memories of participants to create one of the most joyous films of the year.
