Storyline

Two men separated by 100 years are united in their search for freedom. In 1856 a slave, Samuel Woodward and his family, escape from the Monroe Plantation near Richmond, Virginia. A secret network of ordinary people known as the Underground Railroad guide the family on their journey north to Canada. They are relentlessly pursued by the notorious slave hunter Plimpton. Hunted like a dog and haunted by the unthinkable suffering he and his forbears have endured, Samuel is forced to decide between revenge or freedom. 100 years earlier in 1748, John Newton the Captain of a slave trader sails from Africa with a cargo of slaves, bound for America. On board is Samuel's great grandfather whose survival is tied to the fate of Captain Newton. The voyage changes Newton's life forever and he creates a legacy that will inspire Samuel and the lives of millions for generations to come. Written by Distributor

A Moving FILM.... Amazing GRACE..
26 August 2014 | by (Victoria, Australia.) – See all my reviews

A powerful MOVIE, That gives, US a look into Life in the EARLY 1800's. FREEDOM is the HUMAN RIGHT of all.. SLAVERY is the INJUSTICE that many were given. FAITH and HOPE was the Inspiration, To Change the Course of History... AMAZING GRACE, HOW Sweet the sound.... WE all can do OUR BIT, To Change a World, Where SLAVERY IS Still A HUMAN EVIL, THAT has To be ADDRESSED, with a HUMAN RIGHTS AGENDA.... In Our World we see so much injustice, our Voice must be heard. This Movie, has the inspiration to help where we can, to tell our Government, that FREEDOM/PEACE is our only real Progress, for our Country to instill in all of us. Also the rest of the World.
