Sun Ra: A Joyful Noise
Robert Mugge, 1980, United States, 60min, in ENG, subs ENG
“The prevalence of documentaries about musicians is a curse, because most of these films do a terrible job of showcasing music. One rare and moving exception is the work of the director Robert Mugge, whose film Sun Ra: A Joyful Noise – about the musician and bandleader whose multimedia and pan-cultural activities made him one of the prime artists of Afrofuturism – is one of the most satisfying musical portraits I’ve ever seen.”
— Richard Brody about Sun Ra: A Joyful Noise
