About

You can stream Manderlay (2005) on MUBI with a subscription.

In 1933, a young woman and her father discover an Alabama plantation whose inhabitants live as if slavery had never been abolished. Feeling a sense of duty to those behind the heavy gates, she stays to liberate the people and see them through their first harvest. With four of her father's colleagues and a lawyer, she faces the daunting task of resurrecting the place known as Manderlay.

Heavy, stifling tension hangs over this Alabama plantation where the ghost of servitude lingers long after abolition. A young woman attempts to shatter these invisible chains, only to find that true liberation is far more complicated than simply opening the gates.
