Black and white footage of performances, interviews, and conversations at the Newport Folk Festival, from 1963 to 1966. The headliners are Peter, Paul and Mary, Joan Baez, Pete Seeger, and Bob Dylan, who's acoustic and electric.

Several talk musical philosophy, and there's a running commentary about the nature and appeal of folk music. The crowd looks clean cut.
