DESCRIPTION:LOS CHAVOS\n6 pm | Live Music \nSTRICTLY BALLROOM\n8 pm | Screening \nSettle in from 6 pm as Los Chavos takes the stage for a live performance in the NFSA heritage courtyard. Enjoy local wines\, summer cocktails and charcuterie\, available for purchase onsite from Dom’s deli & bar. Then head into Arc Cinema at 8 pm for a screening of Strictly Ballroom. \nABOUT STRICTLY BALLROOM\n1992 | DCP | AUS | D: Baz Luhrmann \nWhen hotshot ballroom dancer Scott (Paul Mercurio) dreams of designing his own routines\, he must team up with nerdy Fran (Tara Morice) to learn how to create from the heart.\nThis cult favourite marks Baz Luhrmann’s directorial debut\, showcasing a filmmaker unafraid to celebrate the endearing eccentricity and parochial pretensions of Australian life. \n‘Grabbing every backstage musical cliché by the lapels\, it sends each one pirouetting\, then sprawling hysterically across the floor. It’s hard not to love this kind of tribute.’ – Washington Post \nStrictly Ballroom has been digitally restored in 4K as part of our restoration program\, NFSA Restores\, reviving our cinema icons. \nABOUT LOS CHAVOS\nLos Chavos are an 8-piece Latin reggae powerhouse\, igniting dance floors from Canberra to Colombia with their infectious energy and festival-ready sound. Led by Andy Jauregui from Cochabamba\, Bolivia\, and backed by seasoned musicians from Australia and South America\, the band has been captivating crowds for over a decade across Canberra and the national festival circuit. \nTheir live show is a vibrant fusion of Afro-Latin rhythms\, including cumbia\, dub/reggae\, and merengue\, woven into complex arrangements that never stray far from their ska/reggae roots. Expect romantic ballads with a ska-cumbia twist\, hard-hitting merengue horns colliding with calypso-hip hop\, and a whole lot of hips swaying. \nABOUT HOT SUMMER NIGHTS\nHot Summer Nights returns for its second year with a hand-picked selection of the hottest live music acts\, curated with films in a single-ticket experience to set the perfect summer vibe. Every Friday and Saturday between January 9 and February 14\, join us in the NFSA heritage courtyard for live music followed by classic cinema.
