SFFILM is excited to present a special onstage tribute to acclaimed veteran filmmaker Spike Lee, on the occasion of his latest film, BlacKkKlansman. Lee will join us for an in-depth conversation about his career and creative process, followed by a screening of the film.
From visionary filmmaker Spike Lee comes the incredible true story of an American hero. It’s the early 1970s, a time of great social upheaval as the struggle for civil rights rages on. Ron Stallworth (John David Washington) becomes the first African American detective on the Colorado Springs Police Department, but his arrival is greeted with skepticism and open hostility by the department’s rank and file. Undaunted, Stallworth resolves to make a name for himself and a difference in his community. He bravely sets out on a dangerous mission: infiltrate and expose the Ku Klux Klan.
