This film is a beautiful and honest telling of the history of Mississippi and the final catalyst for the Civil Rights Movement. While this film is categorized as a documentary, the telling of it is through the eyes and experience of the director, making one feel connected to the story and bridging the gap between the past and the present. The pacing of the story makes one feel like they are having to face the dark demons of our history in the most necessary way. The story of Emmett Till is not told often enough in the history books. I vaguely recall encountering a short snippet in my middle school history books, but if you ask anyone today, most of the time they are not familiar with this story.
