Youssou N'Dour with I Bring What I Love (2009 Spring Season)

Sat, Jun 6 at 8pm

Muslim Voices presents the New York premiere in BAM's Opera House of I Bring What I Love. This film is a remarkable portrait of Youssou N'Dour and the making of his Grammy Award-winning album Egypt—his extraordinary testament to his Muslim faith and an impassioned plea for a more tolerant view of Islam. Directed by Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi, this film profiles N'Dour with candid insight while providing a timely look at the complex place of music in Islam. I Bring What I Love received the Special Jury Prize at the 2008 Middle East International Film Festival.

The screening will be followed by a brief concert appearance by Youssou N'Dour and his band The Super Etoile.
