Description:
1960s come to life in this gripping film. "Berkeley in the Sixties" captures the decade's events - the birth of the Free Speech Movement, civil rights marches, anti-Vietnam War protests, the counter-culture, the women's movement, and the rise of the Black Panthers - in all their immediacy and passion. Dramatic archival footage interwoven with present-day interviews are also presented with 18 songs from the Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, Joan Baez, The Band and the Jefferson Airplane.
