During the same summer as Woodstock, over 300,000 people attended the Harlem Cultural Festival, celebrating African American music and culture, and promoting Black pride and unity. The footage from the festival sat in a basement, unseen for over 50 years, keeping this incredible event in America's history lost — until now.

"This is a great, joyful film that celebrates a beautiful, hopeful time. Questlove does a wonderful job of directing this honorific of 1969. If you're of a certain age, you will cry, in a good way. If this doesn't make you feel a host of emotions, there might be something wrong with you. It's not a concert film. It's a documentary, with interviews and creative editing designed to inform while it entertains. I hope this becomes a classic."
