Quarry Amphitheater & The Humanities Institute Present:
YOUNG SOUL REBELS
A film by Isaac Julian
Recently restored to its original director’s cut, Young Soul Rebels is a coming-of- age thriller set in London in 1977, the year of the Sex Pistols’ debut and Queen Elizabeth II’s Silver Jubilee.
It follows two teenage best friends, Chris and Caz, who operate a pirate radio station, the Soul Patrol, and centers on the race conflicts and tensions among three popular youth movements at the time–skinheads, punks, and soulboys.
As Julien’s first feature, the film won the Semaine de la Critique prize at the 1991 Cannes Film Festival and has garnered international acclaim since its release. Its soundtrack includes music by Parliament, The O’Jays, War, and Roy Ayers, among others.
The screening will begin with a brief presentation about the film and will be followed by a Q&A with writer and director, Isaac Julien.
Presented by the Humanities Institute, the Moving Image Lab, and the Quarry Amphitheater. Co-sponsored by Crown College, Merrill College, and Porter College.
