    Meet Filmmaker Karen Kramer


    ABOUT THE FILM:

    Seven years in the making, RENEGADE DREAMERS celebrates Beat poetry and folk music history, exploring what it means to be a renegade and what it means to be a dreamer for the newest generation of political artists. For award-winning director Karen Kramer, it is now, more than ever that we should question authority and challenge the social norm. With appearances by Bob Dylan, Allen Ginsberg, Wavy Gravy, Joan Baez, Woody Guthrie, Maria Muldaur, Tom Paxton, the Weavers — and some of the best young artists you haven’t yet heard of — this timely film is loaded with protest, history, music, and poetry to create a documentary that champions what it means to be a renegade and dreamer in the United States.
