The Our Image Film and Arts Monthly Screening Series, this month features a screening of Sly Stone: Coming Back for More. 5:30pm Happy Hour Drink/Food Specials + Great Music. 7:00pm screening begins ON TIME. 8:30pm: skype Q&A/discussion with filmmaker Willem Alkema after the screening.

Film Synopsis:  Dutch filmmaker Willem Alkema turns an obsession with Sly and the Family Stone into an exhaustive search for the elusive Mr. Sylvester Stewart in Coming Back For More. His reward - and ours - is the first filmed interview with Sly in more than 20 years.

Alkema intercuts the story with terrific archival materials and interviews, tracking the band's rise to fame right up through Sly's career implosion and descent into life as a recluse. The interview takes up the film's final 15 minutes, with a lucid Sly discussing many subjects, including his acquaintanceship with Doris Day.

Runtime: 74 minutes {some subtitles}.
