THE REVEREND: A DOCUMENTARY FEATURE FILM, PLUS Q&A WITH DIRECTOR NICK CANFIELD
2:00pm • $10 or Film screening + Concert: $25
THE REVEREND follows the spiritual and musical journey of Reverend Vince Anderson. After coming to New York in the 90's to enter the seminary, Vince dropped out to follow his second calling – music. With his band The Love Choir, he has played a now-legendary weekly show for over twenty years. Reconnecting with his faith and using his intense soulful music, he began to preach a type of spirituality that meets people where they are, is open to all, and moves everyone that sees him play. Reverend Vince is also deeply involved in social activism, working with other progressive faith leaders at home and around the country to build inclusive communities. Filmed over several years and featuring Questlove and members of TV On The Radio, The Reverend is a rocking concert film as well as an intimate portrait of Reverend Vince's inspiring personal and spiritual life. 86 minutes.
A Q&A with director Nick Canfield will follow the screening.
