This legendary documentary paints an incredibly revealing portrait of Black America just seven years after the violent Watts riots. The film focuses on the Watts Summer Festival's concert at the L.A. Coliseum in August, 1972. Performances from Isaac Hayes, The Staple Singers, Rufus Thomas, The Bar-Kays, and a host of others, are intercut with interviews with the hysterical Richard Pryor, as well as THE LOVE BOAT'S Ted Lange. WATTSTAX is, quite simply, an electric, enlightening, and unforgettable cultural time capsule.
