Tribeca Talks: After the Movie Contemporary Color with David Byrne

In the summer of 2015, legendary musician David Byrne staged an unprecedented event at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center to celebrate the art of color guard—synchronized dance involving flags, rifles, and sabers—by pairing regional color guard teams with performers, including St. Vincent, Nelly Furtado, and Ad-Rock. More than a concert film, Contemporary Color is a cinematic interpretation of this one-of-a-kind live event, courtesy of visionary filmmakers Bill and Turner Ross.

After the movie: A conversation led by David Byrne with Bill and Turner Ross, with special appearances by color guarders.
