Details

In this historical drama, set in 1865 during the American Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln is determined to pass a constitutional amendment that will abolish slavery in the United States. With the war coming to an end, Lincoln knows that he must act quickly before the returning southern states can stop the amendment from becoming law.

The president is faced with a difficult decision as he realizes that an early peace would save thousands of lives, but it may also jeopardize the passage of the amendment. Lincoln must navigate the political landscape and rally support from a divided and reluctant Congress.

As the country grapples with the moral issue of freedom for all citizens, Lincoln also wrestles with his own crisis of conscience: should he prioritize ending slavery or ending the war?

This film, directed by Steven Spielberg, explores the struggle and perseverance of President Lincoln as he strives to achieve one of the most significant feats in American history. Featuring an acclaimed performance by Daniel Day-Lewis as Abraham Lincoln, the movie provides a fascinating glimpse into the political and personal challenges faced by one of America's greatest leaders.

Don't miss this gripping portrayal of a pivotal moment in American history, as President Abraham Lincoln races against time to secure the passage of the amendment that will forever change the United States.
