The year was 1971 and the hot ticket at the box office was "The French Connection". Little did audiences and the film industry know, that in the same year the birth of a new era was about to explode - independent black cinema. More than 30 years after his father's revolutionary film "Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song" debuted, Mario Van Peebles directs and stars in the real-life account of his father's experiment in filmmaking. Mario Van Peebles and an amazing cast work brilliantly to portray the heart behind the making of Melvin's daring and truly original film.
