Before BAMcinemaFest begins, the Brooklyn performance power house will host a free screening of BAM 150. Directed by Michael Sladek, the film takes an inside look at BAM's long history of featuring supremely talented artists, and as per their performance repertoire, excellent artists are integrated into the film itself, including Maggie Gyllenhaal, Lauren Anderson, Steve Reich, Alan Rickman, Wim Wenders and others.
