ONCE UPON A TIME IN HARLEM
"A film over 50 years in the making."
Directed by William Greaves
A decade after his death, genre-defying filmmaker William Greaves has one last trick up his sleeve with what he considered the most important event he captured on film: a 1972 party he engineered with the living luminaries of the Harlem Renaissance.
