Plot

Recy Taylor is a black woman who at the age of 24 was raped by a group of six white men in 1944 in Alabama. Although it was armed with courage and identified the guilty parties, which was not common at the time, it was a common incident in the area and no trial was held.

In search of justice, the NAACP sent its chief violator, Rosa Parks, who showed her support for the victim and provoked an unprecedented protest.

The film is about a documentary that highlights the physical abuse of black women, telling the story of those who dared to speak when the danger was even greater, picking up how their efforts to fix this problem led to the boycott of the bus. Montgomery and the movements that followed him.
