19.90€
Cora is a slave on a cotton plantation in the southern state of Georgia. Life is hell for all the slaves, but particularly difficult for Cora. Abandoned by her mother, she grows up amidst the most difficult solitude, that of those marginalized by their peers. When Caesar, a young slave who has just arrived from the neighboring state of Virginia, tells her about the Underground Railroad, the two decide to take a fatal risk and flee the plantation, heading North towards Freedom. On that ominous dawn, a bloody escape begins, an odyssey of hope and disappointment.
