Description
The Travellers: This Land Is Your Land is a great documentary .. about the sheer force of music that was born out of an authentic social movement it's terrific.
-- John Doyle, The Globe And Mail
Filled with classic songs like This Land Is Your Land, I's the Bye, Tijuana Jail, and Rock Island Line, The Travellers: This Land is Your Land tells the largely unknown story of Canada's original folkies.
Formed by friends who met at a Jewish socialist summer camp, The Travellers were united by their love of music and belief in social reform. Featuring revealing interviews and rare archival footage from the early days of television, the documentary traces their career as they rose to popularity and to their ultimate breakup following a 1962 tour of the USSR.
