First Thursday Films: "Assembly" Film Screening


7:00 PM - 9:00 PM

2027 W Broadway Ave , Minneapolis, Minnesota, 55411

About This Event

The Capri Theater's premiere Northside movie series continues with another slate of films worthy of your attention and time! Programmed in partnership with the MSP Film Society and the Minnesota Historical Society, First Thursday Films at the Capri aims to create a space for dialogue and better understanding. Come for the movies. Stay for the conversation.

Visionary artist Rashaad Newsome has always been on the cutting edge, eluding nearly every label, as he creates incredible works of multidisciplinary art. With a group of diverse artists, performers and collaborators (including a non-binary AI named Being), he transforms a former military armory into a utopian dream In the film Assembly.

Art and performance meet at New York’s Park Avenue Armory. As Newsome notes, this one time “bastion of white military power” is turned on its head and into an exuberant celebration of Black and queer culture. At once a vision of intergenerational resilience, a raucous display of human expression and liberation, and a mind-blowing dive into the soul of Being, an AI character whose emotional complexity will surprise you, Assembly is truly like nothing you will ever see, and nothing you’ll ever forget.

Tickets are $5/free for Northsiders (zip codes 55411, 55412, 55430) and are available soon at mspfilm.org or at the door. Free parking is available.
