SUMMARY:Tales of Summer - Summer of Soul - FREE OUTDOOR SCREENING
DESCRIPTION:SUMMER OF SOUL (…OR\, WHEN THE REVOLUTION\nCOULD NOT BE TELEVISED)\nDirected by Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson\n2021\, 1h 57m\, PG-13\, Documentary \nCo-presented with Friends of Morningside Park\, the Columbus/Amsterdam BID and W. 111th Street Block Association \nThis program is supported\, in part\, by public funds from the NYC Department of Youth and Community Development (DYCD) in partnership with the City Council and the office of NY City Councilperson Shaun Abreu. \nIn his acclaimed debut as a filmmaker\, Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson presents a powerful and transporting documentary-part music film\, part historical record created around an epic event that celebrated Black history\, culture and fashion. Over the course of six weeks in the summer of 1969\, just one hundred miles south of Woodstock\, The Harlem Cultural Festival was filmed in Mount Morris Park (now Marcus Garvey Park). The footage was never seen and largely forgotten- until 2021. The feature includes never-before-seen concert performances by Stevie Wonder\, Nina Simone\, Sly & the Family Stone\, Gladys Knight & the Pips\, Ray Baretto\, Abbey Lincoln & Max Roach and more. \nWinner of the Sundance Grand Jury Prize\, SUMMER OF SOUL is a resurrection: a time capsule\, a celebration\, and a reckoning all at once. It shines a light on the importance of history to our spiritual well-being and stands as a testament to the healing power of music during times of unrest\, both past and present \n“Sometimes these archival-footage documentaries don’t know what they’ve got. Not here. Here\, the discovery becomes the delight.”  \n–Wesley Morris\, NY Times \n“It’s a hell of an act of reclamation. And it’s damn near a masterpiece.”  \n–David Fear\, Rolling Stone \nFREE ADMISSION

SUMMARY:Tales of Summer - Losing Ground
DESCRIPTION:LOSING GROUND\nKathleen Collins\, 1982\, 86 minutes\nwith Seret Scott\, Bill Gunn\, Duane Jones \nCo-Presented with the Bronx Independent Cinema Center \n  \n  \nThis program is supported\, in part\, by public funds from the NYC Department of Youth and Community Development (DYCD) in partnership with the City Council and the office of NY City Councilperson Shaun Abreu. \nIntroduced by Nina Collins\, daughter of the Director \n \nNina Collins is a writer and entrepreneur. She had a twenty-year career in book publishing as an agent and a scout\, published a book in 2018 called What Would Virginia Woolf Do? and manages the estate of her late mother\, the filmmaker and writer Kathleen Collins. She is currently the board chair of The Brooklyn Public Library and also serves on the board of the publishing house Spiegel & Grau. She lives in Brooklyn. \n  \nAbout the film: \nKathleen Collins’s second film tells the story of two remarkable people\, married and hurtling toward a crossroads in their lives: Sara Rogers\, a Black professor of philosophy\, is embarking on an intellectual quest just as her painter husband\, Victor\, sets off on an exploration of joy. Victor decides to rent a country house away from the city\, but the couple’s summer idyll becomes complicated by his involvement with a younger model. One of the very first fictional features by an African American woman – restored in 2015 by the filmmaker’s daughter\, Nina Collins – Losing Ground remains a stunning and powerful work of art for being a funny\, brilliant\, and personal member of indie cinema canon.   \nIn the New York Times\, Filmmaker Ira Sachs calls Losing Ground “a revelation.” The characters are “so human and fascinating and extremely modern\,” he says\, adding that he loves a movie that “exists in some very complete version of the local.” \nTICKETS: \n$12/adult\n$10/seniors & students\n$2 discount with Community partner code \nBUY TICKETS HERE
