Disney presents a truly inspiring motion picture that accurately captures one of the most historically significant events in the struggle for civil rights. In 1965, during the turbulent early days of the right-to-vote movement, a young Alabama school girl (Jurnee Smollett) is inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (Clifton Powell) to resist the degradation that her fellow African Americans are suffering. Along with a white seminary student (Mackenzie Astin) from the north, and against the ever-increasing threat of racial violence, she promises to do what she can to help Dr. King’s efforts. A powerful true story that will both uplift and entertain. (88 minutes)
