Embark on a fascinating journey as we uncover the intricate story of Freaknik, the legendary event that left an indelible mark on Atlanta's cultural fabric. In this immersive documentary, executive producers Geraldine L. Porras and P. Frank Williams take us behind the scenes, speaking with the founders, exploring the origins of the event's name, and unraveling its complex relationship with Black culture.

From its inception as a fusion of "freaky" and "picnic" to its controversial impact, Freaknik's legacy is rich with intrigue and cultural significance. With insights from key figures and archival footage, we delve into the event's ties to Atlanta's vibrant music scene, including the influential role of Uncle Luke in 1993.

As we celebrate the music and energy of Freaknik, we also confront the nuanced issues it raises, from the objectification of women to expressions of cultural identity. Don't miss this captivating exploration of one of the most legendary parties never told.
