Summary:
In view of
an unimaginable correct story of small time battle for survival and
flexibility. In the precivil War United States, Solomon Northup (Chiwetel

remarkable odyssey, Solomon's chance meeting with a Canadian abolitionist (Brad
Pitt) will everlastingly adjust his life. -- Composed by Fox Searchlight
