Martin Luther King: Days of Hope
A revealing portrait of the life, character and inner struggles of Dr Martin Luther King Jr, champion of non-violent protest and renowned leader of the US civil rights movement.
Dr Martin Luther King has been immortalised as one of the great champions of civil rights and non-violent protest. But in the years since his assassination, a more complex picture of his personality has emerged.
Drawing on interviews with the people he knew, this film reveals that King was never comfortable with the praises he received and was often tormented by self-doubt.
