“A man should be no one’s possession.” That is the theme of this movie and Bishop Hanby and various helpers aid the cause of freedom from slavery during the Civil War. The movie shows various slaves escaping to the Underground Railroad to find freedom. Yet a bounty hunter pursues them and he is relentless. The soundtrack is terrific in this film as are the costumes. As you watch the movie you will feel as if you are suddenly back in time, living in 1861. The film concludes with the end of the Civil War but a lot happens between the start and finish, including some battles and various characters holding onto their faith in God despite hard times and young men marching off to battle, leaving families and homes behind.
We are pleased to award this film our Dove “Family-Approved” Seal for ages twelve plus. As the title of the film so aptly puts it, this one is about freedom and the price that was paid for that freedom.
