Description
The Story of Lover's Rock is a documentary film that tells the story of how Lover's Rock music defined a generation in the late 1970s and 80s, hugely impacting British pop culture. The music allowed young people to experience intimacy and healing through dance, known as "scrubbing” at parties and clubs. They identified with the music as it spoke to their notions and emotions of romantic love and formed a coping mechanism for what they were experiencing on the streets.
This film screening is free and open to the public. For more information call (313) 494-5800.
