Cesar
Chavez Synopsis:
In
Cesar Chavez, director Diego Luna presents a powerful cinematic
portrait of the legendary activist. The film stars Michael Peña (End
of Watch, Lionsgate’s Academy Award-winning Crash) in the title
role, along with America Ferrera (Ugly Betty, End of Watch), Rosario
Dawson (Sin City, Seven Pounds) and John Malkovich (In The Line of
Fire, Summit Entertainment’s Red and Red 2).
Chronicling
the birth of a modern American movement, Cesar Chavez tells the story
of the famed civil rights leader and labor organizer torn between his
duties as a husband and father and his commitment to securing a
living wage for farm workers. Passionate but soft-spoken, Chavez
embraced non-violence as he battled greed and prejudice in his
struggle to bring dignity to people. Chavez inspired millions of
Americans from all walks of life who never worked on a farm to fight
for social justice. His triumphant journey is a remarkable testament
to the power of one individual’s ability to change the world.
