12 Years a Slave

This movie seems really good! It is an emotional and dramatic drama.
12 years a slave is about a violin player (Solomon Northup) He lives in New York with his loving family, he loves his children and his wife more than anything and they love him even more back!
Solomon was born a free man. Back in these days the white people were rich and the black would get beaten, whipped, and punched.
It was a normal night when Solomon was performing at a violin concert when he got deceived and kidnapped and was shipped away and sold to slavery. He worked on plantations in the state of Louisiana, Every servant that doesn’t obey gets beaten. Solomon agreed to go because he thought they were offering him a better violin job. He was held in slavery for 12 years before he got released. In the 12 years of being held as a slave he would often dream of his wife and he would long to get back to her. Once he got released he went back to New York and was reunited with his family.
I would recommend this film because it is really good and you might even tear up a bit :)
