Dir. Greg Kwedar, US, 2023, 105 mins. Cast. Colman Domingo, Sean Dino Johnson, Clarence Maclin.
Sing Sing is a stirring true story of resilience and humanity, starring an unforgettable ensemble cast of formerly incarcerated actors.
Divine G (Colman Domingo), imprisoned at Sing Sing for a crime he didn’t commit, finds purpose by acting in a theatre group alongside other incarcerated men, and a wary newcomer played by Clarence Maclin.
The film is based on a real-life programme Rehabilitation Through the Arts and is a real demonstration of the transformative power of art.

The 6pm screening on Wednesday 16 October will be preceded by a short film from the Artist Moving Image Programme “Moving Waters”:
Ida (Simon Coates, 3 mins 31)
Filmed on location in the swamps near Jean Lafitte in Louisiana, USA, Ida takes its name from the hurricane that decimated large areas of the US state in 2021. Flooding affected the surrounding areas and the bayous around Jean Lafitte increased in size as a result. The work was created to reflect the resilience of the Louisiana people in the face of disaster. Simon Coates is an artist, writer and curator based in London, UK. Coates’ practise is predicated on societal mores and behaviours as communicating modes, and he uses digital media, live and recorded production, and curated events as tools for exploration.
