DESCRIPTION: \nThe evening begins with an optional social hour and pot luck supper at 
 6:00 pm,\nfollowed by the film at 7:30 pm, followed by a discussion at the 
 end of the film.\n\nBAY AREA CYPHER\n\nThis freestyle documentary directed 
 by Idris Hassan is a performance film that blends live freestyle 
 presentations with short interviews to document the unique creativity of 
 Hip Hop in the San Francisco Bay Area.  The project expands beyond 
 stereotypical presentations of commercialized Rap music by capturing the 
 spontaneous and uniquely organic energy of free styling.  Because Idris was 
 able to direct, produce, and edit her own film, you will not see the gold 
 and platinum chains, the cars, the naked girls, the drugs, the guns, and 
 the alcohol that is associated with corporate Hip Hop.  This film is about 
 the spirit and community aspects of the art form, featuring the voices of 
 many of today’s independent Bay Area conscious rappers.  Through the Hip 
 Hop elements of rhyme and dance this documentary highlights the spiritual 
 and communal aspects of Hip Hop culture, showing how improvisational 
 freestyle is key to manifesting a higher energetic vibration.\n\nWheelchair 
 accessible around the corner at  411  28th  Street\n\n$5 donations are 
 accepted\n\n\n\n\n\n
