    Special Screenings

    Story Ave (2023)

    Bronx native Aristotle Torres was semi-famous during the Aughts for directing over 70 music videos (J. Cole, Nas, 2 Chainz, Ludacris) and short films. Now he is releasing his first feature-length film. Story Ave began as a short in 2017, but after screenings at regional film festivals across the country, Torres took the project long-form with backing from Sundance Labs. It tells the story of Kadir, a young man who, in an attempt to prove his manhood, tries to stick up subway conductor Luis at the Story Ave. station in the Bronx. Monday’s screening is free for AFS members. – Brant Bingamon
