“Homecoming presents an intimate look at Beyoncé’s historic 2018 Coachella performance that paid homage to America's historically black colleges and universities,” according to the official synopsis. “Interspersed with candid footage and interviews detailing the preparation and powerful intent behind her vision, ‘Homecoming’ traces the emotional road from creative concept to cultural movement.”
Beyoncé’s Coachella performance was ranked as an instant classic by fans. Not only did she she electrify with her own hits, she also brought an inferno to the stage with a special dance break to O.T. Genasis’ “Everybody Mad,” which went viral. The trailer for the movie dropped today and shows Bey on and off stage, as well as bands from historically black universities. The film is set to be released on April 17.
Between "Homecoming" and the Ivy Park relaunch with Adidas, 2019 is clearly becoming the year that Beyoncé’s cultural empire expands in new directions, both watchable and wearable.
