AFI AWARDS celebrates ONE NIGHT IN MIAMI… with new content featuring the director and stars of the film. Director Regina King accepts the AFI AWARDS honor on behalf of the creative ensemble and introduces the film to the AFI Movie Club audience.
The actors in the film, Leslie Odom Jr., Eli Goree, Aldis Hodge and Kingsley Ben-Adir, take the audience "Behind the Scene" in this once-in-a-lifetime convergence of legends in which Malcolm X, Cassius Clay, Sam Cooke and Jim Brown all meet over the course of an evening together to debate and celebrate what it means to be Black in America.

"ONE NIGHT IN MIAMI… is a knockout. This powerfully imagined gathering of giants – Malcolm X, Cassius Clay, Sam Cooke and Jim Brown – announces the arrival of Regina King as a singular voice behind the camera. A meticulously choreographed dreamscape that leaps from the words of writer Kemp Powers, the film asks, 'What if...' and then confronts the complicated legacy of race in America with searing insights ignited by a war of words, the bonds of brotherhood and the hope that change is gonna come." -The American Film Institute
The AFI AWARDS celebration is sponsored by Audi, a supporter of AFI programs for the past 17 years. To commemorate each of the AFI AWARDS recipients, Audi has created the AFI AWARDS Audi Scholarships initiative providing scholarships in the name of the honorees to women and BIPOC Fellows at the AFI Conservatory – for a total contribution of $250,000. Congratulations to Andrea Camacho-Tiznado, Directing Fellow, recipient of the AFI AWARDS Audi Scholarship in the name of AFI AWARDS Honoree ONE NIGHT IN MIAMI…
