From the Collection: “SLAM” Reunion Is a Celebration of Freedom
Marc Levin’s film about a talented Black poet from the projects who’s arrested on petty drug charges captured the hearts of audiences at the 1998 Sundance Film Festival, and it did the same thing in 2023, when the cast and crew returned to the mountain to see their film once again in its restored and remastered state.
