Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat

OSCAR® nominee
This Sundance award winner tells the story of the U.S. government's jazz ambassador program in Africa and the CIA's involvement with the assassination of Congolese leader Patrice Lumumba. A provocative, real-life Cold War thriller, "Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat" intertwines jazz, espionage, and colonialism - uncovering a scandal whose urgency is still resonant in today's geopolitical climate.
