"This is a film for the family to see...one of the most compassionate and truthful of movies."—Roger Ebert
Nathan Lee Morgan (Paul Winfield), an African-American sharecropper, steals food from his neighbor to feed his starving family and is arrested. His wife Rebecca (Cicely Tyson) and their three children must bring in the family's crop alone, but that's just one hardship facing them in the Depression-era South. Sounder is a powerful story of a boy, his dog, and a family's triumph over adversity, and remains a classic today.
