TILL | “A Mother’s Power” Featurette

This featurette describes TILL as more of a film about Mamie Till’s rise as an important activist in the Civil Rights Movement rather than a movie about the case itself. Of course, the case is front and center, but it appears to revolve more about the purpose that came from such a horrific tragedy.

Says director Chinonye Chukwu, “There will be no physical violence against Black people on screen, because I’m not interested in relishing in that kind of physical trauma. We’re going to begin and end in a place of joy.”
