Sorry to Bother You Film Screening

Friday | October 25 | 7:00-9:00pm
WSU | Stark 103

Winona State’s 2019 University Theme Film Series: “Careers, Conflicts, and Callings” Continues Oct. 25 with Sorry to Bother You (2018, dir. Boots Riley). This Sundance hit mashup of sci-fi tropes and irreverent humor had the attention of critics and audiences alike last year for its savvy take on workplace politics. Lakeith Stanfield stars as a young black telemarketer who navigates a career roadblock by adopting a white accent and then finds himself deep in a corporate conspiracy. Rated R for pervasive language, some strong sexual content, graphic nudity, and drug use. See www.winona.edu/film-studies/film-series.asp or academics.winona.edu/povwinona for series and film previews.
