Release
Release It tells the triumphant story of Peter (Smith), a man escaping from slavery, drawing on his wits, unwavering faith, and deep love for his family for brave cold-blooded fishermen and the unforgiving swamps of Louisiana in his quest for freedom. The film is inspired by the 1863 “Whipped Peter” photographs, taken during a Union Army medical examination, which first appeared in Harper’s Weekly. One photograph, known as “The Back of the Flogging”, which shows Peter’s bare back mutilated with a flogging by his slaves eventually contributed to the growing popular opposition to slavery.
