Watch a mother’s heartbreaking quest for justice in the new Emmett Till film trailer

The trailer for the Emmett Till biopic has been released and it is truly heartbreaking. It weaves an emotional narrative about a mother’s struggle for justice for her son, a teenage boy murdered by white supremacists in 1955. “There is no better time than now to learn more about the painful events of Emmett Till’s murder,” the film’s director, Jason Pollock said in a statement earlier this month. “Emmett Till will remind us all that as long as we remain complacent, things in America could be worse.”
