One of my favorites movies

This week I have to write about my favorite movie. It's so difficult pick just one, but i'm gonna choose one of this year that I love so much!
This movie won the Oscar for "best movie", I'm talking about "12 years a slave".
The film is an adaptation of a memoir of the slave Salomon Northup, relased in 1853. This man was a free New York Afican-American citizen, who worked as a violinist for the "high classes" of the United States. Then, Salomon was kidnapped in Washington D.C for a pair of cheaters who offered him a two-week job in a kind of "circus" in 1841, but they just wanted to sold him to slavery.

This story take place during the twelve years that Salomon worked in the plantations of Louisina, the state where he was sold, and how he discover that if he is a "educated slave", he's gonna have more chances to escape.
After all the abuses that he had to suffer, a local sheriff, who asks Northup a lot of questions to confirm that he was really a free man who lived in New York. Confirmed this, Salomon was restored to freedom and he returned to his family, and they work together to find the mans who enslaved him.
This is one of the best movies that I've seen in my life. I really enjoyed the whole 134 minutes of the film.
I love the historic movies!
That's all, regards!
