Locations: St. Anthony Main Theatre, 115 SE Main Street

The Film Society of Minneapolis St. Paul presents Sing Your Song, showing theatrically on Screen 3 at St. Anthony Main Theatre Friday, March 16, through Thursday, March 22.

Sing Your Song is an up-close look at a great American, Harry Belafonte.  A champion for worldwide civil and human rights, Belafonte is one of the truly heroic cultural and political figures of the past 60 years. The film charts Belafonte’s life - from his birth in New York and youth in Jamaica, and return to Harlem in his early teens where he discovers the American Negro Theater and the magic of performing. From there the film follows Belafonte’s rise from the jazz and folk clubs of Greenwich Village and Harlem to his emergence as a star, and as an activist.Sing your Song presents a look at the Civil Rights Movement through the eyes of an insider, someone who, despite his high profile, wasn’t afraid to spend time in the trenches.  From Harlem to Mississippi to Africa to South Central Los Angeles, Sing Your Song takes us on a journey through Belafonte’s life, work and, most of all, his conscience, as it inspires us all to action!
