Film 2018
series Fight the Power: Black Superheroes on Film
Directed by John Coney | 1974
With Sun Ra, Raymond Johnson, Christopher Brooks
Avant-jazz mystic Sun Ra brought his pioneering Afrofuturist vision to film with this movie version of his concept album. It’s a wild, kaleidoscopic whirl of science fiction, sharp social commentary, goofy pseudo-blaxploitation stylistics, and thrilling concert performance, in which the pharaonic Ra and his Arkestra lead an intergalactic movement to resettle the black race on their utopian space colony.
