Filmed over 20 years, "Thumbs Up for Mother Universe!" tells Lonnie Holley's story, revealing how one man's instinct to create has enabled him to succeed against all odds - a journey from garbage dumps and prison camps, to festival stages and The Met.



Filmmaker George King will be in attendance with a Zoom appearance from co-director Lonnie Holley. Associate professor T. Anthony Marotta also contributed shadow puppet design/performance to the film.
