One summer evening in 1972, a generation of Harlem Renaissance artists and intellectuals gathered at Duke Ellington's townhouse to reminisce, critique, argue, laugh, and drink while wrestling with their place in a shifting cultural landscape. Director David Greaves completed his father William's vision by assembling a trove of 16mm film that had lain dormant for more than 50 years.2026. USA. Directed by David Greaves. Documentary. 100 minutes.
