Curious Sailor Jerry pop-up cinema comes to Auckland this Tuesday to screen Hori Smoku
This Tuesday May 7th, Curious Film takes its Pop Up Cinema Rockabilly Rumarama to Auckland in further celebration of its Australasian release of Hori Smoku, a documentary on the life and times of world-renowned tattooist Norman Collins, aka Sailor Jerry.
Says Peter Grasse, Curious Film: “I’m so friggin excited to bring this event to Auckland. You asked for it and we listened. This is going to be one hell of a rockin party.”
Norman Collins built his reputation in the crucible of tattoo arts, Hotel Street, Honolulu. It was a place crowded with sailors, soldiers and roughnecks. Every man here was one step away from an adventure that would define the rest of his life and tattoos were a rite of passage. Through archived footage and interviews with the men that lived it, Hori Smoku brings you to the centre of the mayhem.
Screening starts at 7:15pm at The Nathan Club in Britomart. Party pops into full gear at 8 o’clock. Please RSVP: rsvpnz@curiousfilm.com. To know what you’re in for check out the Sydney and Melbourne Bash here;
