1848 – America's Deep South

Slave girl Rosa is pale-skinned enough to 'pass for white', yet escape seems an impossible dream until she meets Benjamin.

Together, they hatch a desperate plan. If Rosa poses as a white gentleman, Benjamin can travel as her slave...

But can Rosa hold her nerve on their thousand-mile flight to freedom?

Inspired by the true story of Ellen and William Craft, this is a powerful tale of danger, injustice and unimaginable courage.
