AMISTAD
"Freedom is not given. It is our right at birth. But there are moments when it must be taken."
Directed by Steven Spielberg
In 1839, the slave ship Amistad set sail from Cuba to America. During the long trip, Cinque leads the slaves in an unprecedented uprising. They are then held prisoner in Connecticut, and their release becomes the subject of heated debate.
