5/9 Sorry to Bother You and Q&A with Director Boots Riley

Join us for a special screening of Sorry to Bother You, the critically acclaimed dark comedy-satire written and directed by Boots Riley. The film follows Cassius Green, a telemarketer who discovers a surreal key to corporate success, only to find himself entangled in a bizarre conspiracy that blurs the lines between capitalism, labor, and identity.

After the film, we’ll host an exclusive virtual Q&A with Boots Riley, where he’ll discuss the film’s themes, its sharp social commentary, and the creative process behind its unique blend of humor, surrealism, and activism. Don’t miss this opportunity to engage with the mind behind one of the most original and thought-provoking films of recent years!

This event is produced in partnership with the Central Labor Council of Humboldt and Del Norte Counties/AFL-CIO.
