Aroview: A drama based on the life of Mrs. Rosa L. Parks from director Julie Dash (DAUGHTERS OF THE DUST).

In America in 1955, her courageous act of refusing to give up her seat on a racially segregated bus became a pivotal moment in the civil rights movement, defining a heroic life of political activism. Some nuance is missing in this TV biopic but there's no lack of passion, and Angela Bassett is spectacular.
