Ron Stallworth (John David Washington), an African American police officer from Colorado Springs, CO, successfully manages to infiltrate the local Ku Klux Klan branch with the help of a Jewish surrogate (Adam Driver) who eventually becomes its leader. Based on actual events. Rotten Tomatoes (95%) says, “BlacKkKlansman uses history to offer bitingly trenchant commentary on current events -- and brings out some of Spike Lee's hardest-hitting work in decades along the way.”
Rated R, 135 minutes.
Attendance is limited to the first 60 people and not guaranteed. Doors will open 30 minutes before show time.
