Join us in 2026 for our year-long film series REEL REBELS. Weโll be screening films known for their renegade characters, including stories about underdogs fighting the odds, lonely voices crying to be heard, and moviemakers struggling to share their vision. REEL REBELS showcases works from across the globe that prove that movies will always be a home for nonconformists, dissenters, and rebels. The series continues in May with the Robert Townsend's satire HOLLYWOOD SHUFFLE. ๐ง๐ถ๐ฐ๐ธ๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐๐ฎ๐ถ๐น๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ ๐ป๐ผ๐ ๐ฎ๐ ๐ฎ๐บ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ.๐ผ๐ฟ๐ด/๐๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฎ๐น๐๐๐ฏ๐ผ๐๐ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ ๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ฒ: Director, co-writer and star Robert Townsend skewers Hollywood is this satire about the typecasting of Black actors in the โ80s studio system.
