About Twelve Years a Slave

Solomon Northup lebte über dreißig Jahre als freier Bürger, bis er von Sklavenhändlern verschleppt und an einen Plantagenbesitzer in Louisiana verkauft wurde. Dort erlitt er zwölf Jahre grausamster Gefangenschaft, ehe er seine Freiheit zurückgewann und zu seiner Familie heimkehren konnte. Northups Memoiren von 1853 sind ein wertvolles historisches Dokument über ein dunkles Kapitel amerikanischer Geschichte und das berührende Zeugnis eines mutigen und unnachgiebigen Mannes. Auf seinem wahren Bericht beruht das Drehbuch zu Steve McQueens Oscar®-prämiertem Kinofilm 12 Years a Slave.
