A documentary that chronicles the life of young college professor Angela Davis, and how her social activism implicates her in a botched kidnapping attempt that ends with a shootout, four dead, and her name on the FBI’s 10 most wanted list.

Through archive footage and recollective interviews, director Shola Lynch mounts a vivid documentary portrait of the activist Angela Davis. With Davis on-hand to provide her own lucid, first-person perspective, it makes for a compelling account of the life and times of a countercultural warrior.
