[Please be advised that this is a documentary screening with live remarks from Julia Reichert, Steven Bognar, and Dave Chappelle—not a standup performance.]Fueled by the murder of George Floyd, shut-in by the closures of business and unable to perform around the country, this film follows Dave Chappelle as he provides the community he calls home with two things desperately needed in difficult times – economic and comic relief. What began as an experimental socially-distanced live comedy show in a neighbor's cornfield, grew into an unforgettable summer with his neighbors, friends and fellow comedians. Ultimately, Chappelle’s cornfield concerts would serve as a model of courage not just for his community, but for the entire live entertainment industry.
