Der lange Weg (1990)
Alabama, 1950er Jahre: Martin Luther King ruft die schwarze Bevölkerung zum Bus-Boykott auf. Damit ihre Haushaltshilfe Odessa nicht zu Fuß gehen muss, holt ihre Chefin Miriam sie mit dem Auto von zuhause ab. Als sie die Lebensumstände ihrer Angestellten kennenlernt, wird die Hausfrau zur Bürgerrechtlerin.
