In his acclaimed debut as a filmmaker, Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson presents part music film, part historical record. The film is focused around the legendary 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival which celebrated African American music and culture and promoted Black pride and unity. The Summer of Soul shines a light on the importance of history to our well-being and stands as a testament to the healing power of music. (2021) PG-13 1h 58m
