Jazz and decolonisation are entwined in this historical rollercoaster that rewrites the Cold War episode that led musicians Abbey Lincoln and Max Roach to crash the U.N security council in protest against the murder of Congolese leader Patrice Lumumba. Crackling with energy and verve, this masterful film takes history and creates an audacious musical documentary.
From the producer of I Am Not Your Negro, the documentary
features Louis Armstrong, Nina Simone, Dizzy Gillepsie and
Malcolm X.
