We Want the Funk! (2025)
"We Want the Funk!" erzählt die Geschichte des Funk – von seinen Wurzeln in Afrika und im Jazz über die frühen Songs von James Brown bis hin zum Kollektiv Parliament-Funkadelic. Als urbanes Genre spiegelt Funk das Lebensgefühl der Bürgerrechtsbewegung wider. Sein rasanter Aufstieg in den 70er Jahren ist eng mit den politischen Spannungen verbunden, die damals die Städte der USA prägten.
Die Regisseur: Stanley Nelson, Nicole London.
