The daily routine of cocaine dealer Priest who wants to score one more super deal and retire.

4/4 Stars! “Super Fly is a movie of surprising political bite and emotional nuance” (Larsen On Film)

“Among the early and most sacred films in the Blacksploitation cannon, 1972’s Super Fly is a towering pillar…It’s as satisfying today as it must have been for audiences in the 1970s” (Cinapse)

“one of the most significant blaxploitation films ever made…fascinatingly entertaining” (Hollywood Reporter)

“it has a subdued psychological acuity that goes far beyond the grubby baseline of the normal exploitation film, and makes it a much more rewarding piece of cinema than I think it generally gets credit for.” (Alternate Ending)

*Please take note that doors open 30 minutes before showtimes. We encourage people to arrive early. We have a small box office, a small candy bar, and a single-screen cinema, meaning that when most of an audience shows up a few minutes before showtime, it causes a bottleneck. If possible, we appreciate you arriving a little bit early to pick out your seat and get your popcorn. Thanks for your help!

Priest (Ron O'Neal), a suave top-rung New York City drug dealer, decides that he wants to get out of his dangerous trade. Working with his reluctant friend, Eddie (Carl Lee), Priest devises a scheme that will allow him to make a big deal and then retire. When a desperate street dealer informs the police of Priest's activities, Priest is forced into an uncomfortable arrangement with corrupt narcotics officers. Setting his plan in motion, he aims to both leave the business and stick it to the man.
