First Thursday Films at The Capri: "Souleymane’s Story" Screening


7:00 PM - 9:30 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.

In Souleymane’s Story, racing through the streets of Paris making food deliveries on his bicycle, Guinean immigrant Souleymane (Sangare) is struggling to stay afloat. In two days, he has to report for an asylum application interview, where he must plead his case to an immigration officer (Nina Meurisse) who will determine his future in France. As he rides, he repeats his story. But Souleymane is not ready.

Drawing inspiration from Cristian Mungiu’s 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days and evoking the humanist films of the Dardennes, Boris Lojkine’s urgent, propulsive third feature never leaves Souleymane’s side in a deeply affecting account of the daily trials and uncertain futures faced by migrants in France and around the world.

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.
