An unsung hero of British cinema, Peter Whitehead’s films represent an extraordinary insight into counterculture movements of the late 1960s in both London and New York. He filmed Allen Ginsberg at the Royal Albert Hall, the Royal Shakepeare Company’s protest against the Vietnam War, the Presidential campaign of Robert F. Kennedy and student protests at Columbia University. This first ever American retrospective of Whitehead’s film work presents an unrivaled document of an era of great social change.
