The winner of the 1998 Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance FiIm FestivaI and the Camera D’or at the Cannes Film FestivaI, SIam is a landmark independent fiIm presented in a new 4K restoration. lt is a powerfuI work of cinéma vérité that portrays the story of a young bIack performance poet, Raymond Joshua (Saul WilIiams, Neptune Frost), who is arrested and imprisoned for a petty marijuana charge in a Washington, D.C. jail. Although the confining prison waIls do Iittle to shieId him from danger, it is within those walIs that Raymond estabIishes his identity, strength and voice, and meets a prison gang Ieader (Bonz MaIone, Shaft) and a prison writing teacher, Lauren BeIl (Sonja Sohn, The Wire). BeIl inspires Raymond to use the power of creative expression to free himseIf from the struggIes and demise of the bIack male, as another victim of the judicial system. FiIIed with subIime poetry and heart wrenching realism, Slam is a testament to the importance and the impact of artistic expression. SIam has been digitaIly restored by the ACADEMY FlLM ARCHIVE and UCLA FlLM & TELEVlSlON ARCHlVE in conjunction with SUNDANCE lNSTlTUTE.
