the.american.revolution is coming
"The American Revolution" is a feature-length documentary film produced for festival, theatrical, and broadcast release.
It's the story of how a radio station, politics and rock and roll changed everything.
Long before Facebook and Twitter, before the Internet and GPS, underground radio was the social media of its day, connecting listeners and promoting the profound social, political and cultural changes of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
"The American Revolution" chronicles free-form radio station WBCN-FM and Boston's other underground media, from 1968 to 1974, through the original sights, sounds and stories.
