WHEN HELL FREEZES OVER, I'LL SKATE

Directed by Emile Ardolino, Vinnette Carroll

1979 / 60min

This lively, spirit-lifting musical celebrates the sheer joy -- and survival -- of black music, song and poetry since the days of America's Civil War. With utter grace and ease, the gifted eight-member singing ensemble glides from gospel to disco and from slave-quarter sermons to contemporary black poetry.
