   What is 'Selma' about?

   • No less than an inside-Hollywood drama or a backstage musical, “Selma” tears away the curtain on the making of images—indeed, some of the most important images in American history.

   Jan 13, 2015 · While watching Selma we were struck with the knowledge that 50 years later the strategies implemented for change demonstrated in this film provide a blueprint for addressing some of the issues we are struggling with today.
