About this Event
Pop Up Cinema: The Color Purple (2023)
SpiritHouseNC & Forward Justice invite you to the first event of this year's Kwanzaa Series where we will be honoring the principle of " Umoja " (Unity) by gathering together with family, friends, and the community at the Shadow Box Studio in Durham, NC for a FREE showing of 2023's The Color Purple. This film --produced by Oprah Winfrey, Steven Spielberg, Quincey Jones and Scott Sanders-- is based on the Tony-winning Broadway musical, which was based on the 1985 Steven Spielberg movie that gave the media icon, Oprah Winfrey, her first big acting break.
"It all originates from Alice Walker’s classic 1982 novel about Black women from the rural South during the early part of the last century, trying to survive and thrive under unspeakable, ever-present cruelties. Joy, love, and hope are also interwoven throughout—the lifelines these women cling to amidst the gale-force brutality" (Anthony Breznican, Vanity Fair, 2022)
We will be providing FREE refreshments.
