Event Description:

Amistad will be shown on Tuesday night February 8th at 6:00 p.m. Based on a true story, Amistad is the saga of a failed mutiny on board a Spanish slave ship and the trial that followed. In the summer of 1839,  53 African captives broke free and took over the slave ship. Captured off the eastern seaboard after failing in a desperate attempt to sail home , they find themselves at the mercy of the American judicial system.
