TAKING WOODSTOCK

Elliot Tiber, a down-on-his-luck interior designer, has to move back upstate to help his parents run their motel. When he hears that a neighbouring town has pulled the permit on a hippie music festival, he calls the producers to drum up business for the motel.

Loosely based on a real story, Ang Lee’s joyful rendition of the days spent preparing Woodstock festival—and the major cultural phenomenon that followed—is the kind of film you wish you had been cast for! LSD tripping, logistical nightmares and hippies a-gogo all make for a fun and energizing time!
