SPACE IS THE PLACE

Opens on November 27

Director: John Coney Run Time: 82 min. Release Year: 1974

Starring: Christopher Brooks, June Tyson, Marshall Allen, Raymond Johnson, Sun Ra

Avant-jazz mystic Sun Ra brought his pioneering Afrofuturist vision to the screen with this film version of his concept album. It’s a wild, kaleidoscopic whirl of science fiction, sharp social commentary, goofy pseudo-blaxploitation stylistics, and thrilling concert performance, in which the pharaonic Ra and his Arkestra lead an intergalactic movement to resettle the Black race on their utopian space colony.
