Starting this February, ATLFS presents NOIRE - A series of screenings devoted to new and classic films by Black filmmakers. On March 4th we’ll screen Theodore Witcher's beloved 1997 classic LOVE JONES.
Film Synopsis: Darius Lovehall is a young black poet in Chicago who starts dating Nina Moseley, a beautiful and talented photographer. While trying to figure out if they've got a "love thing" or are just "kicking it," they hang out with their friends, talking about love and sex. Then Nina tests the strength of Darius' feelings and sets a chain of romantic complications into motion.
This series kicks off February 25th with a members-only early look at A24's ON BECOMING A GUINEA FOWL, the new film by director Rungano Nyoni (winner of the Cannes Camera D'or for her first feature I AM NOT A WITCH). We’ll round out the series on March 11th, with the exciting debut feature JIMMY (Telluride/ NYFF 2024), with director Yashaddai Owens in attendance.
