Synopsis:

In 1964, three civil rights activists went missing in Mississippi. Alan Parker's powerful fictionalised account of the subsequent murder investigation by two FBI men (Gene Hackman and Willem Dafoe) crackles with tension as they battle to uncover the truth in the face of opposition from bigoted local police, the Ku Klux Klan and their mutual distrust of each other’s methods and motives.
