Just Mercy
Michael B Jordan stars as lawyer Bryan Stevenson in this powerful and thought-provoking true story of his quest for justice. A Harvard graduate, Stevenson rejects high-paid positions to go to Alabama to fight for the wrongly condemned and misrepresented, including Walter McMillian (Jamie Foxx).

"From its smooth visuals and warm, swinging sounds to its magnificent performances, "Just Mercy" is masterfully constructed to keep us inside a story that otherwise would be too brutal to bear." The Washington Post.
