Based on the thrilling and inspirational life of an iconic American freedom fighter, HARRIET tells the extraordinary tale of Harriet Tubman’s escape from slavery and transformation into one of America’s greatest heroes. Her courage, ingenuity, and tenacity freed hundreds of enslaved peoples and changed the course of history. RSVP and SUID are required for entry to the Lunchtime Q&A. Tickets for the film screening will be distributed on the shuttle bus of at the movie theater if using alternative transportation.
