Oscar worthy! 1864: as war ravages the nation, on the outskirts of the
Civil War business as usual continues for slave-owners and traders. THE

slaves and wanted freedmen in order to lure them back to the South. On a
dangerous mission into the free North to find Nate, a fugitive freedman, things
go wrong, and Will and Nate find themselves alone and on the run. As the
bond between them unexpectedly grows, Will becomes consumed by conflicting
emotions as he faces a gut-wrenching final decision: to betray the father
figure he's finally found, or risk being killed by his gang. Thrilling, but
