Brian Banks: See the Film and Meet the Man

Presented by Ohio Innocence Project and ArtsWave at Esquire Theatre, Cincinnati OH

Sep 25 2019
Brian Banks: See the Film and Meet the Man

Don’t miss this one-time special screening of Brian Banks, with an opportunity to meet in person the true-life subject of the film.

Brian Banks is the true story of a former high- school football star of the same name.  A stand-out player on his high-school team, Brian seemed destined for the NFL when his career was cut short by a false accusation and wrongful imprisonment.  Nearly 10 years later his conviction was overturned and Brian was exonerated.  He then fulfilled his dream of playing in the NFL with the Atlanta Falcons.

Attendees will enjoy a cash bar reception starting at 6:15 prior to the screening.  Following the screening, Brian Banks, the subject of the film, will participate in an exclusive Q&A session with the audience.  The cash bar will also re-open in the theater during this time.

Join the Ohio Innocence Project and ArtsWave Wednesday 9/25 at the Esquire Theatre to learn more of Brian’s amazing story, and the ways in which film and art can effect real social change.
