This film was screened in a double bill with MYSTERY, MR. RA.
Jazz legend Archie Shepp toplines this unique and informative documentary. It intercuts performance footage of Shepp with interviews where he speaks candidly about such topics as Jazz’s African origins, the genre’s “revolutionary” purpose, and the social isolation of African Americans today.
