Sorry to Bother You (2018) is a bold and darkly humorous film about a telemarketer who discovers he can succeed at work by using his âwhite voice,â while his coworkers begin organising for better conditions. What starts as a story about ambition quickly turns into a surreal and biting critique of the entanglement of race and labour. Funny and accessible, yet deeply critical throughout.
The evening will start at 17:00 with some snacks to welcome you! Swipe to see what else you can expect from the evening!
