We're happy to offer our DC readers the chance to attend a free advance screening of Crown Heights, starring Lakeith Stanfield and former NFL defensive back, Nnamdi Asamougha.
SYNOPSIS: In the spring of 1980, a teenager is gunned down in the streets of Flatbush, Brooklyn. The police pressure a child witness to identify a suspect. As a result, Colin Warner, an 18-year-old kid from nearby Crown Heights, is wrongfully convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison. Colin’s childhood friend Carl 'KC' King devotes his life to fighting for Colin’s freedom. He works on appeals, takes loans for lawyer fees and becomes a legal courier to learn the court system. This incredible true story is based on the acclaimed This American Life piece and adapted by writer/director Matt Ruskin, with Lakeith Stanfield playing Colin Warner and Nnamdi Asomugha as Carl King.
The screening takes place on Tuesday, August 29th at 7:00pm at Regal Gallery Place. If you'd like to attend, simply complete the Rafflecopter contest form below. Winners will be selected on Friday, August 25th and contacted by email. Good luck!
