Outstanding remake of the 1970's film based on Alex Haley's work.
This extraordinary film deals with the life of Kunta Kinte who was sold into slavery and transported to America to face a life of deprivation, dehumanization and one difficulty after another.
The film goes through the man Kinte and the various generations that came after him from a period of the late 1750s through the end of the civil war.
It is the constant desire of freedom, identification of who he is and what he stood for that keeps the generations going through such adversity.
An outstanding cast of Kinte, Kizzy, Chicken George and Forrest Whitaker, as Fiddler, tackle their roles with perfection.
Not to be missed.
