SING SING Advance Screening
We were honored to participate with Community Partner Denton Black Film Festival in presenting an advance screening of A24’s SING SING on Wednesday, July 31, at Angelika Film Center & Café – Dallas.
The evening was even more special with screenwriter Clint Bentley and Associate Producer Linda Halbert in the audience. Following the screening, Bentley talked with DBFF Film Programming Director Linda Eaddy and DIFF Artistic Director James Faust about the film, which releases nationwide August 2.
SYNOPSIS:
Divine G (Colman Domingo), imprisoned at Sing Sing for a crime he didn’t commit, finds purpose by acting in a theatre group alongside other incarcerated men, including wary newcomer (Clarence Maclin), in this stirring true story of resilience, humanity, and the transformative power of art, starring an unforgettable ensemble cast of formerly incarcerated actors.
Based on a remarkably true story and created by Texas-based filmmakers,SING SING is a heartfelt portrait ofincarcerated menwhose lives too often go unseen, and the power they found in coming together to start a movement through the arts.
