Nominato come Miglior documentario agli Oscar, Soundtrack to a coup d'etat è una sinfonia che resterà impressa nelle memorie. Le voci e la musica senza tempo di Louis Armstrong, Nina Simone e Miles Davis per raccontare le lotte di indipendenza africana, il movimento per i diritti civili negli anni 60 e la Guerra Fredda, con l'arma più anticonvenzionale degli Stati Uniti: il jazz.
