Twenty-three years ago, Amnesty International capped off its six-city, profile-raising Conspiracy of Hope concert series with an 11-hour kumbaya that featured the Police (who specifically reunited for this tour), U2, Yoko Ono, Joni Mitchell, Peter Gabriel, and another dozen or so in-demand acts. The FSLC recreates that high-spirited experience with a rare screening that observes the 1986 timetable — making 5:30pm (when Carlos Santana and Fela collaborate onstage with the ever-cool Miles Davis) and 7pm (Lou Reed) must-see slots. As a plus, Robert De Niro, Pam Grier, Muhammad Ali, Robin Williams, and Pat "Love Is a Battlefield" Benatar are among the many between-sets emcees.
