Zola

Screenings for Fully-Vaccinated Patrons on Mondays in July

Zola (newcomer Taylour Paige), a Detroit waitress, strikes up a new friendship with a customer, Stefani (Riley Keough), a sex worker who entices her to join a weekend of pole dancing for cash. But instantly it transforms into a 48-hour odyssey involving a nameless pimp, an idiot boyfriend, some Tampa gangsters, and lots of leering men amidst unexpected, unwanted adventures in this edgy and wild tale. It’s brilliant indie filmmaking that’s bold, brash, graphic, steamy, violent, and somehow, often funny—a totally original talent.

On Mondays, July 12, 19, and 26, we will offer screenings for fully-vaccinated patrons. We will require proof of vaccination to enter the JBFC Theater.  
Proof of vaccination may include your vaccination card, a copy of the card on your phone, or the New York Excelsior Pass app on your phone, in combination with your ID. You will not be permitted inside the facility without proof of vaccination on Mondays in July.

"It’s not just the way Bravo uses modern internet language to enhance the storytelling – for example, tweet sounds punctuate lines like rim shots – but the totally engaged performances she draws from her cast."
Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
"Janicza Bravo is the director best adept at bringing all the peculiarity, hilarity, and ugliness of social media mayhem to the big screen."
Jordan Raup, The Film Stage
"From the writing and directing to the costuming and production design, Bravo and her team transform the famed series of tweets into an of-the-moment film that captures the same frenetic energy of the story."
Cate Young, Jezebel
