Local art studio Dreamer Concepts will team up with vintage boutique Anty Shanty to bring to Norman a new film series, Films in the Alley.

The event will kick off in the alley behind Dreamer Concepts, located at 324 E. Main St., at 8 p.m. with a screening of the art house film, “Urgh! A Music War,” that will be projected onto the wall of a neighboring building.

The idea for Films in the Alley came about when Amber Clour, executive director of Dreamer Concepts, noticed a lack of independent films being presented in Oklahoma.

“We want to bring hard-to-find films to Oklahoma and support local filmmakers,” Clour said.

The 1981 film, not previously screened in Oklahoma, is focused on different punk rock band on tour in 1980.

Cory Gingerich, co-owner of Anty Shanty, said he discovered this particular film while he was working in the film industry in Los Angeles.

“It’s a rare movie that should be seen,” Gingerich said. “It is incredible documentation of punk rock and pop music of that time. This is a once-in-a-lifetime thing and I am stoked to show this film for the first time in Oklahoma.”

The screening will be a great opportunity for people who are interested in the punk movement, he said. In the future he would like to show films that address a countercultural event or message.

There will be a $5 charge to attend the event. Popcorn and beverages from The Brewhouse will be served at the venue.
