Woodstock 99: Peace, Love, and Rage

Directed by Garret Price1h 50m2021

Explore Woodstock 99, a three-day music festival promoted to echo unity and counterculture idealism of the original 1969 concert but instead devolved into riots, looting and sexual assaults.

Our read: Woodstock 99: Peace, Love, and Rage (2021) reads as a sombre, kinetic, grounded documentary · music entry — measured in intensity, mid-stakes in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook.
