Based on the true story of Solomon Northup. It is 1841, and Northup, an accomplished, free citizen of New York, is kidnapped and sold into slavery. Stripped of his identity and deprived of all dignity, Northup is ultimately purchased by ruthless plantation owner Edwin Epps and must find the strength within to survive. Filled with powerful performances by an astonishing cast including Chiwetel Ejiofor, Michael Fassbener, Benedict Cumberbatch, Brad Pitt, and newcomer Lupita Nyong'o, 12 Years a Slave is both an unflinching account of slavery in American history and a celebration of the indomitable power of hope.
Blu-ray, widescreen; requires Blu-ray player.
Contents: Twelve years a slave.

12 Years A Slave submitted by SBNB on August 15, 2018, 7:33pm This is a great movie. It is one of the best ones I've seen in a long time. What makes it even better is that it's based on a true story.

12 Years a Slave submitted by lstorc on July 28, 2019, 12:33pm 12 Years a Slave is hard to watch because it's difficult to dissociate from the main character. It is exceptionally well done.
