Om den här filmen

Set against the antebellum South, THE BIRTH OF A NATION follows Nat Turner (Nate Parker), a literate slave and preacher, whose financially strained owner, Samuel Turner (Armie Hammer), accepts an offer to use Nat’s preaching to subdue unruly slaves. As he witnesses countless atrocities - against himself and his fellow slaves - Nat orchestrates an uprising in the hopes of leading his people to freedom.

Wow! One has to question why this wasn't a box office smash. I feel very upset I didn't see this in the cinema. This was the most powerful film I have ever seen in my life. Imagine Django except real and without Tarantino signature all over it. Imagine 12 years a slave without the draining fatigue of continuous suffering and pain. Imagine the best slavery set movie ever

Absolutely brilliant film, would definitely recommend watching. A missing piece of history that the everyone should know about, remember and make sure this never happens again.

one of the greatest films I've ever seen. Let the light shine! thank you Nate turner.
