Special Event Screening of
Roman J Israel Esq.
Main Hall
November 29th at 7:30pm
Special event as part of our give back to all the people who gave during our annual appeal so far!
Roman J. Israel, Esq. is set in the underbelly of
the overburdened Los Angeles criminal court system. Denzel Washington
stars as a driven, idealistic defense attorney whose life is upended
when his mentor, a civil rights icon, dies. When he is recruited to join
a firm led by one of the legendary man’s former students – the
ambitious lawyer George Pierce (Colin Farrell) – and begins a friendship
with a young champion of equal rights (Carmen Ejogo), a turbulent
series of events ensue that will put the activism that has defined
Roman’s career to the test.
