Synopsis:
In this groundbreaking documentary from the Independent Film Channel, filmmaker Isaac Julien takes us back to the early 70s and the explosion of blaxploitation films, today one of American cinema's most beloved cult genres. The original guilty pleasure, these fun and energetic films had all the action, comedy, sex and groovy music you could want in two hours worth of entertainment.
Featuring a wealth of footage from classic films such as Superfly, Shaft, and Melvin Van Peebles' Sweet Sweetback's BaadAsssss Song, and interviews with such key players as Richard Roundtree, Quentin Tarantino, and Pam Grier, "Baadasssss Cinema" thoroughly explores blaxploitation films from their breakout casting and unforgettable soundtracks to the outrageous fashions and hilariously over-the-top story lines that together helped the genre achieve its revered cult status.
