Celebrate Black History Month with Cicada and IU's Black Film Center & Archive as we screen the classic Blaxploitation film CLEOPATRA JONES (1973). Featuring a special introduction to the film by BFCA Director Novotny Lawrence!
Synopsis: International supermodel by day, super fly secret agent by night, Cleo is all woman, a fast-footed fashion icon unafraid of kicking a little ass to clean up her community! She packs heat, drives fast cars, and is ready to kung fu her way through the villainous machinations of Mommy, leader of an underground drug ring poisoning Cleo's neighborhood. Don't miss you chance to see this exciting, iconic celebration of Black feminism in action!
