Notes et avis

Yet another example of how all you need to do to get a high score on RT is make a movie about ANY minority facing adversity.

Eye opening!! Power and money and how the government will justify killing innocent people. The truth is finally coming out.

Amazing movie. Really moving especially when you realize it's based on historical events.
