The Groveland Four (2018)

Directed by Keith Salkowski

Overview

July, 1949: four young black men are wrongly accused of rape by a 17-year-old farm wife in rural Lake County, Florida. The case of “The Groveland Four” included a race riot, torture, multiple murders, two trials and a Supreme Court reversal. Though widely covered by the national press, the case has been largely forgotten… even though it helped lay a foundation for the Civil Rights Movement.
