Art Kane, now deceased, coordinated a group photograph of all the top jazz musicians in NYC in the year 1958, for a piece in Esquire magazine. Just about every jazz musician at the time showed up for the photo shoot which took place in front of a brownstone near the 125th street station.

这部由电影制片人兼多媒体艺术家约翰·格里蒙普雷（代表作《双重特工》）创作的新纪录片堪称一部精心结构的电影随笔。影片以刚果及其首位民主选举的总理帕特里斯·卢蒙巴的谋杀为背景，融合了地缘政治、爵士音乐、冷战阴谋和殖民实践，是一部爆炸性的混合体。片中既有详尽的研究和数据，又在形式上绝对巧妙和自由。影片追踪了卢蒙巴的权力崛起以及殖民者对将国家控制权交给其公民的抵抗。同时，影片还记录了美国试图通过派遣爵士音乐家如妮娜·西蒙、杜克·艾灵顿、路易斯·阿姆斯特朗等人来影响该国的努力。这些音乐家来到刚果演奏，浑然不知他们不过是中情局阴谋的幌子。最终，这部影片充满了音乐和电影能量，同时对仍然拒绝被抹去的殖民幽灵发出了一声强烈的政治控诉“我控诉”。
