Nope | Film Screening

Experience Jordan Peele’s NOPE (2022) on the big screen—an ambitious, genre-blending sci-fi horror with the scale of a modern western and the tension of a classic creature feature. Starring Daniel Kaluuya and Keke Palmer as siblings running a horse-wrangling business in rural California, the film follows their attempt to capture evidence of a terrifying presence in the sky—only to uncover something far stranger (and far more dangerous) than they imagined.

Presented in partnership with Black in the Gorge. Proceeds benefit Columbia Center for the Arts and Black in the Gorge’s cultural programs.
