A fascinating, musically driven nine-year journey through a period of major social upheaval in the US.

A treasure trove of archived film reels, rescued from the vaults of Swedish television, form the basis for this hard-hitting documentary from Göran Hugo Olsson, a tour de force that illuminates the heyday of the US's Black Power movement and the political hysteria that surrounded it.

The striking archival footage - captured by Swedish journalists covering the turmoil in the US - depicts the front lines of this radical militant activism, with fresh commentary provided by those who survived. A 21st-century reassessment is also offered by the likes of Erykah Badu, Harry Belafonte and Talib Kweli.

This riveting cultural cut-up is enriched by an authentic anthology of music from the era, along with contemporary grooves supplied by Questlove and The Roots.
