Storyline

The story recounts a true event in the American civil rights movement: in 1955, 14-year-old Emmett Louis Till was accused of improper conduct with a white woman, then kidnapped and brutally murdered. Two white suspects were acquitted by an all-white jury. Emmett's mother, Mamie Till-Mobley (Danielle), determined to seek justice for her son, decided to have an open casket at Emmett's funeral and arranged for Jet magazine to publish photos of her son's funeral. She wanted people around the world to know what happened to her son. Subsequently, tens of thousands saw Emmett's photos, and the case became a symbol of racial injustice in the South. Whoopi plays Emmett's grandmother, Alma Carthan.
