Biographical epic of the controversial and influential Black Nationalist leader, from his early life and career as a small-time gangster, to his ministry as a member of the Nation of Islam.
"Malcolm X, alongside Martin Luther King and Medgar Evers, was one of the main leaders for the rights of the black population in the United States. Through the Organization for Afro-American Unity, he intensified the racial struggle in the United States and brought purpose to various issues. In this feature film, filmmaker Spike Lee ("Infiltrator in the Klan," "Do the Right Thing") delves into the leader's history over three hours, showing his childhood suffering with his father killed by the Ku Klux Klan, passing through his activism at universities and even reaching his final struggle for the human rights of the black population. With well-defined ideals and proposals, it helps the audience better understand this struggle that has been going on for years."
