Film: Frick Fine Arts Auditorium, 8:30pm: Our Latin Thing/Nuestra Cosa-Presented by Friends of Cine Latinoamericano/The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust

Special live interview with Larry Harlow – the godfather of salsa brava! For many 70’s salsa aficionados, the place to dance and be seen was New York’s glamorous Cheetah Ballroom. During one very special evening in August, salsa lovers were treated to an historic concert at the Cheetah, featuring the renowned Fania All-Stars. This special event was lovingly documented in the film Our Latin Thing/Nuestra Cosa, which includes an earth-shattering version of the classic salsa anthem Quítate Tu (Get Out of My Way) that still stands to this day as one of the most brilliant performances and songs of the decade.
