Ava DuVernay's () biographical drama. During her voyage of discovery, Wilkerson (Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor) experiences a series of devastating personal losses that give her mission greater meaning. The result is a film that works as both a broad educational tool and a tender portrait of grief. It may ultimately feel too simplistic for those who've read the book – and too scholastic in places for those who haven't – but it remains a powerful conversation-starter.
