On Sunday, December 18 Transistor Chicago will host the first live recording of Michael Glover Smith's White City Cinema Radio Hour podcast. The episode will feature Smith talking with fellow critics Jason Coffman (Daily Grindhouse) and Daniel Nava (Chicago Cinema Circuit) about the year in movies. All three will discuss their top five films of the year -- with commentary -- as well as engage in what is sure to be a lively discussion of the most encouraging and discouraging cinematic trends in 2016. 

Please join us for a special Saturday event as award-winning filmmaker & writer Lonnie Edwards hosts a night of some of his favorite films from different talented filmmakers from around the world. Plus live music and a DJ!  It's the final event in our Broadway space (we will reopen at 5224 N. Clark Street in early May)!
