If you loved Tears of the Sun, try Emancipation
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share

What Emancipation is
Swampy Louisiana darkness, a whip cracks, a man runs. A slave's desperate bid for freedom, a treacherous path to family, the weight of a lifelong burden. Fuqua shoots the brutal beauty of a historical era.
