It’s a slow-moving film about an incredibly strong family whose life you would like to see in slow motion to grasp It better. Joel Edgerton and Ruth Negga as Mildred find their match in the film by monumenting the life of two people whose attempt changes the history of not only Virginia, but the United States as well.
