    From a young manhood that saw him co-found the Freedom Riders and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, and being beaten on the Edmund Pettus Bridge on Bloody Sunday in 1965, through 30-plus years' distinguished service in the U.S. House, John Lewis earned his imperishable position in the modern history of American civil rights. This documentary portrait leavened by interviews with Lewis himself, as well as many colleagues and admirers, offers revealing perspectives on both the icon and the man. 96 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
