Join Nowhere Cinema in honoring Black Resistance with a ticketed screening of Uptight!
Jules Dassin's Uptight is a movie of a moment in time. Released just months after Martin Luther King Jr.'s murder, this powerful film demands to be seen on the big screen.
This screening will be subtitled. CW: Uptight contains racist and homophobic slurs, gun violence, and alcoholism. If you have any questions, please email nowherecinema@pm.me.
