Film Premiere: The Sacred Place Between Earth and Space

Year: 2022
Run time: 92 minutes
Director: Patrick Heaphy
Cast: Craig Harris, Claire Danes, Hugh Dancy, Pat Cruz, Carl Hancock Rux, Marshall Allen

A documentary that captures the mid-pandemic culmination of Harlem Stage’s Afrofuturism series featuring Craig Harris’ Nocturnal Nubian Ball for Conscientious Ballers and Cultural Shot Callers. The film is a mix of behind the scenes, concert, and historical footage that highlights Craig Harris’ reunion and performances with legendary free jazz instrumentalist and fellow Sun Ra Arkestra Member, Marshall Allen. For that brief week in the summer of 2021, Craig Harris and his Nation of Imagination were able to provide much needed entertainment for a pandemic fatigued New York City.


Post-performance discussion with Craig Harris, Harlem Stage Artistic Director & CEO Pat Cruz, and Director Patrick Heaphy.

A production of LCM247 in partnership with Harlem Stage.
