Movie & discussion: Sambizanga (from Angola) & Center for Fiction Café & Bar
Details
Let’s get together to see the movie Sambizanga (from Angola) at BAM on Monday, March 2nd at 4:30pm.
Please keep in mind: it looks like a sad movie.
Here’s the premise from Letterboxd:
Domingos is a member of an African liberation movement, arrested by the Portuguese secret police, after bloody events in Angola. His wife goes from a prison station to another, trying in vain to find out where he is.
Since the movie should only have 5 minutes of previews, let’s try to meet up by 4:15 inside the first floor by the ticketing counter (before getting our tickets scanned and before concessions). No worries if you arrive later, we can see you after the movie ends. The movie should end by 6:30 which is when we'll regroup outside the theater / by concessions.
