Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé
Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé
There never has been, and never again will be, anyone like Queen Bey, who, with her 32nd Grammy Award win in 2023, became the artist with the most Grammy wins of all time. For her historic performance at the 2018 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, Beyoncé stops at nothing to emulate a halftime show at the HBCU she never attended, incorporating steppers, drill teams, breakers, and a massive brass band into her hits-keep-coming setlist. With behind-the-scenes peeks into rehearsals, family home movies, and footage of real university halftime shows sprinkled in between her dynamic numbers, Homecoming is the ultimate concert film for a new generation.
DIRECTED BY: Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, Ed Burke. WRITTEN BY: Beyoncé Knowles-Carter. WITH: Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams, Solange. 2019. 137 min. USA. Color. English. DCP.
