The Journey of August King (1995) is a compelling drama set in North Carolina during April 1815, focusing on a farmer named August King. As a widower, August annually travels home after selling his crops and procuring supplies for the upcoming year. During this routine journey, he encounters a 17-year-old runaway slave. August is then faced with a moral dilemma: should he risk breaking the law to assist the slave in escaping to freedom, or should he leave her to face the consequences of being recaptured and returned to her owner? The narrative evolves into a profound exploration of whether either individual will ultimately find true freedom.
