Featuring rare concert footage, archival material, home video and in-depth interviews with Kanye West, Snoop Dogg, Madlib, Common and more, this documentary shines a light on one of the most influential labels in music. After the screening, director Jeff Broadway and Peanut Butter Wolf will discuss the making of the film.
