In 1967, those 'Frisco Hippies felt it was time to spread their Gospel of Music...to Denver.
Who Really Killed The Hippies? This is THE True Story about idealists who shocked a community, transformed a culture, toppled a Government, and derailed a Revolution.
Big Fat Benny (Barry Fey) was a knit-sweater Folkie who urged Frisco's Founding Flower Children to come stage a Love-In in Denver - where Governor Love ruled (yep. his real name!) and the cops hadn't heard of Civil Rights. So them Hippies sent a Black Man to turn on the Red Necks - and decided to stay to build a Hippie Concert Hall and spread their Music Revolution - while one Cop sworn to destroy them broke every law he was sworn to uphold.
With legal weed in Colorado, this story from 50 years yon is as fresh as today's headlines - Youth vs Establishment. Bomb threats. Media promoting Fake News. A propaganda war that raged in schools, churches, on the air and in the streets ends with THE most shocking political bombshell of the '60s. Yet you've never heard about this story - because the Court Records remain sealed to this day.
A very "Roshomon" story about The Power Of One, told from three views; a vigilante Cop who violates his own laws, a Hippie Artist who keeps The Faith, and a Dreamer who doubted himself... until he saves the day and lives his own Dream instead of somebody else's.
The Power of The Individual. Times three.
