Synopsis

1965. Civil rights activists James Bevel, Hosea Williams and Martin Luther King Jr campaign for their right to vote. As Luther King Jr leads hundreds of like-minded people along the 54-mile highway from Selma to Alabama’s capital, Montgomery, they are met with violent conflict and brutal opposition.

MUBI's take

Ava DuVernay became the first Black woman to receive a Golden Globe nomination for Best Director with this inspiring account of a civil-rights march that changed the world. With a moving performance by David Oyelowo as Martin Luther King, Selma rivetingly dissects an ongoing struggle for change.
