Nøgne hippier, store bands og stoffer. I 1969 samledes næsten en halv million mennesker på en mark nord for New York. De kom for at høre deres livs koncert, men oplevede et kulturelt højdepunkt, der kom til at definere dem som generation. Nu, 50 år efter, vender vi tilbage til den ikoniske festival - der på trods af regn, mangel på toiletter og mad, forløb uden problemer. Et skelsættende historisk øjeblik fyldt med kærlighed, fred og musik.

Den pæne, unge Elliot Tiber drages ind i planlægningen, da hans forældres motel omdannes til hippie-hovedkvarter. Oplevelsen bliver et skælsættende vendepunkt i hans liv.

Meanwhile, the Taylors are an African-American family living in the deep South.

Sommeren ´69 myldrer med epokegørende begivenheder. Enorme folkemængder demonstrerer mod Vietnamkrigen. Apollo astronauterne er på vej mod månen. Woodstock-festivalen venter lige om hjørnet. Autoriteter er yt. Hippier er hot. Peace and Love er in. Måske er det derfor, Pearl føler, at hun er låst fast, at livet bare passerer forbi hende. Det er ikke fordi, hun ikke elsker hendes mand og to dejlige børn. Måske er hun bare blevet gift for tidligt. Måske har hun bare haft for travlt med at være trofast hustru og flittig husmor. Walker Jerome bliver manden, der vækker alle hendes indestængte følelser. Den nat Neil Armastrong sætter foden på Månen, og hele verden - inklusiv Pearls mand - i åndeløs spænding følger begivenheden på tv, sniger Pearl sig afsted til et stævnemøde. Den nat bliver hun en ny kvinde, sprudlende af livslyst og glødende af hemmelig indre energi...

Lacey Schwartz grew up in a typical upper-middle-class Jewish household in Woodstock, NY, with loving parents and a strong sense of her Jewish identity - despite the open questions from those around her about how a white girl could have such dark skin. She believes her family's explanation that her looks were inherited from her dark-skinned Sicilian grandfather. But when her parents abruptly split, her gut starts to tell her something different. At age of 18, she finally confronts her mother and learns the truth: her biological father was not the man who raised her, but a black man named Rodney with whom her mother had had an affair.

SAINT MISBEHAVIN’ reveals the true story of cultural phenomenon Wavy Gravy, a man whose commitment to making the world a better place has never wavered. Wavy Gravy is known as the MC of the Woodstock Festival, a hippie icon, a clown and even a Ben & Jerry’s ice cream flavor. In Saint Misbehavin’ we meet a true servant to humanity, who carries his message through humor and compassion. The film weaves together intimate verite footage, reflections from an array of cultural and countercultural peers, and never-before-seen archival footage to tell a story that is bigger than the man himself.

This television special is a first for the reclusive singer with the BBC documentary gaining new interviews with Young, nine months apart in New York and California. The documentary also looks back over the singer's archives, with some never-seen-before material.

Following the success of their eponymous debut in 1992, Blind Melon succumbed to the familiar tale of falling into the debauchery which comes hand in hand with rock ‘n’ roll riches. Their set on the main stage on day two at Woodstock '94 would mark the band at the peak of their powers as they delivered a performance that would have even stood out in ’69. For the exhilarating set, frontman Shannon Hoon opted to wear his girlfriend’s white dress which was quite the statement back in ’94, a time when society was no way near as progressive as it is today and signified the sort of accepting character that he was.
