Сельма (2014)

"Selma" is a 2014 film directed by Ava DuVernay, which depicts the civil rights protests led by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in Selma, Alabama, in 1965. The film explores the struggles and sacrifices of these activists in their fight for voting rights for African Americans, and the violent opposition they faced from local authorities and white supremacists. Through powerful performances, stunning visuals, and a haunting musical score, "Selma" captures the emotional and physical toll of the movement, as well as the courage and resilience of those who fought for change. The film also explores the personal and political challenges faced by Dr. King, as he balances his role as a leader with his roles as a husband and father, and as a target of government surveillance and intimidation. "Selma" received critical acclaim for its nuanced portrayal of these historical events, as well as for its relevance to contemporary issues of racial inequality and police violence. It was nominated for numerous awards, including the Academy Award for Best Picture, and won the Academy Award for Best Original Song for "Glory," performed by John Legend and Common.
