SUMMARY:AMP Concerts: Brian Culbertson
DESCRIPTION:7:30 pm \nAMP Concerts presents Brian Culbertson. Over the course of crafting a 25-album catalog and architecting nearly 40 Billboard No. 1 singles as a multi-instrumentalist\, songwriter and producer\, Brian Culbertson has charted his own unique course in music. Label him jazz and he makes a funk record. Call him an R&B artist and he drops an acoustic jazz trio collection. Brand him pop and he creates a 32-minute New Age opus. And you’d be hard pressed to name another instrumentalist of his ilk who can mount an elaborately designed concert production that will keep him on the road for three consecutive months. \n$37\, $47\, $57\, and $132 \nApproximate time of event: 2 hours including intermission. \n*The event is a rental event not an NHCC production.

SUMMARY:Cervantes Film Series: Relatos de la Resistencia: La Chana
DESCRIPTION:12:00 pm MST (available for 96 hours)\nInstituto Cervantes Vimeo Channel Here \nRelatos de la Resistencia: Buscando un lugar en el mundo \nLa Chana reveals the story of a mythical dancer who rose to stardom and then plunged into anonymity. The profound gaze of director Lucija Stojevic – who has recently returned to portraiture with her documentary Pepi Fandango (2023) – follows her protagonist to understand how the artistic vocation of a woman like her could survive and be recreated throughout her life. \nSynopsis: A self-taught dancer\, Antonia Santiago Amador\, known as la Chana\, lives a quiet life in Catalonia. Between 1960 and 1980\, she was one of the biggest stars of the flamenco world\, astonishing with her innovative\, fast-paced style and inventive use of rhythm. Peter Sellers\, with whom she appeared in The Bobo (1967)\, invited her to Hollywood. And suddenly\, at the peak of her career\, she disappeared from the scene. Decades of dancing have worn out her body. Sensual\, vulnerable\, yet seemingly invincible\, she transports us to the essence of her passion as she returns to the stage after a twenty-five-year hiatus. \nDirector/s: Lucija Stojevic | Year: 2017 | Format: Digital | Running time: Largometraje – 82 min | Genre: Documental | Country: España | Original version: español | Subtitles: inglés\, francés | portugués (de Brasil)\, italiano\, español | Rated: SC \n \nRelators de la Resistencia: Buscando un lugar en el mundo\, the strength of documentary filmmaking in Spain is a phenomenon with three decades of history. The work of the monographic festivals has been crucial to maintain its strength and validity among the public interested in the new expressive forms of cinema\, but also among those who seek in the documentary to know the perspective and experiences of others\, often very distant spatially\, temporally\, and culturally. \nIn collaboration with the DocsBarcelona festival\, this online film series that stars the month of April on our Vimeo channel brings together four documentaries that allow us to meet people whose lives are marked by adventure\, and not always in its most positive interpretation. In addition\, the direction of these works tells us about the place from where we elaborate the stories of loss\, but also those of survival and overcoming. \nPROGRAM\nApril 4: La Chana (2017)\, by Lucija Stojevic\nApril 11: Los Bilbao (2022)\, by Pedro Speroni\nApril 18: Light Falls Vertical (2022)\, by Efthymia Zymvragaki\nApril 25: Querida Sara (2021)\, by Patricia Franquesa

SUMMARY:Power of Our Stories: In the Pit & Chicano Movement Music
DESCRIPTION:2nd Annual Film Symposium\n5:00 pm Food Trucks (Cubish) & Cash Bar\n6:00 pm Chuy Martinez Songs of the Chicano Movement\n7:00 pm Screening\nPanel Discussion & Q&A to immediately follow with Chuy Martinez & shiloh burton\, NHCC Film Coordinator \nNHCC | Bank of America Theatre \nFree community event. Please register below. \nUsing state of the art digital filmmaking\, “gorgeous time lapse sequences” (NY Newsday)\, and a “terrific soundtrack” (Time Out) made of a “magical montage of found sounds” (Chicago Sun-Times)\, Juan Carlos Rulfo’s In the Pit is a powerful documentary about the personal struggles behind the construction of a massive elevated freeway. With lyricism and compassion\, this Sundance Film Festival prize-winning film reveals the medieval nightmare underneath an ambitious utopian dream: Mexico City’s Periferico Beltway\, more than ten miles of elevated reinforced concrete\, supported by massive towers\, that has been planned to both soar above and link the city’s densely gridlocked urban neighborhoods. But while the roadway is a spectacular miracle of modern architectural design\, it comes with a human cost.  For every bridge built\, warns a Mexican proverb\, the devil demands one soul. Even in contemporary Mexico\, “any major construction project needs a soul in its foundation\,” agrees one of In the Pit’s army of laborers tunneling beneath the surface and scaling the perilous heights of La Cuidad to ensure that “the Second Deck” becomes a reality. Physically diminutive yet implacably committed\, El Chabelo doggedly faces each moment of every filthy\, risky\, and exhausting day with calm and resignation. His colleague El Grande is a rough-hewn and misanthropic mason as carelessly unafraid of indulging his dark personal demons as he is of facing the perils of both the pit and the towers. El Guapo wistfully longs for love\, while El Voyeur propositions women from hundreds of feet in the air. A film of “unlikely beauty” (Variety)\, In the Pit lays bare “the secret human face of an inhuman world” (NY Times). \n2006 Mexico 84 min. | Color Letterboxed (1.85:1) | In Spanish with English Subtitles \n
