Screenings We Love ::
Rubble Kings
Our homies Shan Nicholson & Ben Velez has done it again!
On their last film Nicholson & Valez took us to the magical nightlife of downtown 1980′s NYC in DOWNTOWN CALLING- This time they takes us a little further back, and brings the rough gang ridden streets of 1970′s NYC with them. If you thought you had an idea of how real NYC was back in the day, take a deep breathe cuz shit’s about to get real.
About the Screening:
We’ll be hosting the NYC premiere of our second feature documentary, RUBBLE KINGS as invited Feature Documentary in the HBO NY INTERNATIONAL LATINO FILM FESTIVAL. RUBBLE KINGS is the most comprehensive documentation of the outlaw gang era of NYC and features an abundance of rare footage and photography, as well as interviews with key historical figures from both sides of the law to tell how a few, extraordinary and forgotten people did the impossible, and how their actions impacted the world over.The screening date/time is Thursday, August 18th at 9pm. We will be there and hosting a q&a session afterwards, and many of the amazing cast members – mostly original NYC outlaws – will be in attendance, as well.
