Join Garden Cinema as they present a screening of In The Heat of the Night, the last screening of their Celebrating Sidney Poitier season. Set in the racist South (Sparta in Mississippi), Sidney Poitier stars as Virgil Tibbs, a police officer from the North, who investigates a murder case in an uneasy alliance with Rod Steiger, the bigoted police chief. Detective Tibbs investigates the death of a businessman and comes face-to-face with racism in the southern United States in the process.
