An adaptation of Osha Gray Davidson’s novel, Taraji P. Henson stars as Ann Atwater, a civil rights activist in Carolina who battles with the Ku Klux Klan leader C. P. Ellis (Sam Rockwell) for a decade until 1971, when the two agree to co-chair a two-week community meeting to deal with a court-ordered school desegregation decree. That meeting changes both of their lives. Robin Bissell helms the likely to be a contentious film which also stars Anne Heche, Wes Bentley, Bruce McGill, John Gallagher Jr., and Nick Searcy.
