Presented by Queen's University's African and Caribbean Society in honour of Black History Month, Sinners is a transcendent and genre-bending thrill ride from director Ryan Coogler (Fruitvale Station, Black Panther).
Set in the Deep South during the 1930s, twin brothers Smoke and Stack (both portrayed by Michael B. Jordan) return to their hometown flush with cash after becoming entangled in Chicago’s gang wars whilst working for Al Capone. Hoping for a fresh start, they invest in a local juke joint, but it doesn’t take long for them to sense something is off. As night descends, dark forces and the undead emerge, forcing the brothers into a brutal fight for survival until dawn.
QUBACS is a student-led, cultural society at Queen's University, Belfast that celebrates African and Caribbean cultures, heritage and community. Their mission is to increase visibility both on and off campus. In this spirit, they are planning events every week in October to celebrate Black History Month, kicking off with a celebration of black excellence and creativity in film with this screening of Sinners.
