Cesar Chavez

Chronicling the birth of a modern American movement, this powerful cinematic portrait of the legendary activist tells the story of the civil rights leader and labor organizer torn between his duties as a husband and father and his commitment to securing a living wage for farm workers.

Passionate but soft-spoken, Chavez embraced non-violence as he battled greed and prejudice in his struggle to bring dignity to people. Chavez inspired millions of Americans from all walks of life who never worked on a farm to fight for social justice. His triumphant journey is a remarkable testament to the power of one individual’s ability to change the world. Director: Diego Luna.
