Steve McQueen, the award-winning director of "Shame," brings to life the heart-wrenching story of Solomon Northup in his latest film, "12 Years a Slave."

Based on the true events of Northup's life, this film takes us on a journey through his struggle for survival and freedom in pre-Civil War America. Despite being born a free black man, Northup is abducted and sold into slavery where he faces unimaginable cruelty and hardship.

Despite the odds against him, Northup never gives up his fight for dignity and keeps hope alive, even when the world seems to be against him. This incredible story of resilience and perseverance takes a turn when Northup meets Canadian abolitionist, Brad Pitt and his life is forever changed.

12 Years a Slave is a powerful film that shines a light on the atrocities of slavery and the human spirit's unbreakable will to survive. Don't miss your chance to witness this incredible true story brought to life on the big screen.
