UNHEARD: "It Was All a Dream" Screening

Constructed entirely from the personal archives of award-winning filmmaker and journalist dream hampton, It Was All a Dream is a profound visual memoir of the early 1990s—the true "golden era" of hip-hop. Filmed when hampton was a 19-year-old NYU film student and rising music journalist, the documentary offers an unprecedented, vérité glimpse into a pivotal moment in music history.

It Was All a Dream is more than a concert film or a fan’s tribute; it is a vital archival project that forces us to reconcile the "retroactive glow" of our collective memory with the raw, complicated truths of the past. It is an essential, deeply personal invitation to witness the birth of a cultural revolution through the eyes of one of its most essential chroniclers.
