Our community cinema continues with Io Capitano. Io Capitano tells the stories of Seydou and Moussa, two Senegalese teenagers who leave Dakar to travel to Europe where they believe opportunities await. On a journey neither could have imagined, the boys face the dangers of the desert and the perils of the sea in an epic coming-of-age tale that offers a deeply human perspective on the migrant crisis.
The film received a 13-minute standing ovation at its premiere at the Venice Film Festival and won top directing and acting prizes.
This screening is for ages 18+.
