INSIDE OUT IN THE OPEN focuses on the revolutionary, avant-garde developments in Jazz that evolved in the early 1960's, expanding the boundaries in rhythm, sound, harmonics, and collective improvisation with an expansive openness and deep emotion. It's a tradition that continues to this day, still filled with creative energy and affecting newer and younger listeners. The only voices in this film are of the musicians themselves, speaking about creating music, influences, memories of the 60's and more. Features performances and interviews with Reggie Workman, Roswell Rudd, John Tchicai and Baikida Carroll plus many other notable Jazz performers. An important contribution to the history of Jazz.
