What the Hell Happened to Blood, Sweat and Tears? 2024, (112 min) 

We end our Fall season with an intriguing and little-known story in rock history. In 1970, Blood, Sweat and Tears was one of the biggest bands in the world, selling millions of records, winning multiple Grammy Awards including Album of the Year (beating out The Beatles; Abbey Road) and headlining the legendary Woodstock festival. Their future was limitless. And then it all went wrong. Created with the full cooperation of Blood, Sweat and Tears, this feature documentary will overflow with great music, international political intrigue, compelling human moments, humor and fresh insight into this strange never-before-told story of a tangle with the Nixon administration, a controversial tour behind the Iron Curtain that put them in the crossfire of a polarized America, and a lost tour documentary that might just explain it all.

All films will be screened at Dare Arts in Manteo, unless otherwise specified. Doors will open at 6pm and films will start at 6:30pm. Discussion follows the screening. Seating is first come, first serve. The venue is accessible and has an elevator. Outer Banks Film Society Memberships are not refundable and are only available to adults 18 and up.

The Outer Banks Film Society was created to foster a community that appreciates the art of film. Unlike purchasing a ticket to go see a movie at the local theater, you join the Outer Banks Film Society through an annual or seasonal membership.
