MSP Film Society announces the award-winning YULI as the Opening Night Film of the 38th Minneapolis St. Paul International Film Festival, which runs April 4 – 20, 2019. Festival Passes and 6-packs are on sale now at mspfilm.org, with individual ticket sales opening to MSP Film Society Members on March 14 and to the public on March 21.
Yuli is a dazzling dramatization of the early life and work of legendary Cuban dancer Carlos Acosta. Inspired by Acosta’s 2007 memoir No Way Home, which detailed his rise from the streets of Havana to the heights of classical ballet. The film was helmed by the distinguished Basque director Icíar Bollaín and adapted for the screen by her frequent collaborator Paul Laverty. Special guest Santiago Alfonso, the acclaimed Cuban choreographer, dancer, and actor, will be in attendance for MSPIFF’s Opening Night festivities, which include the presentation of Yuli at St. Anthony Main Theatres on Thursday, April 4, 2019, at 7pm, and a party to follow at Jefe Urban Hacienda, featuring live music by celebrated AfroCaribbean ensemble Malamanya. Tickets to the Opening Night Film include entrance to the party.
