A Pre-release Screening of "The Better Angels"

"The Better Angels" explores the family, hardships, and tragedy of Abraham Lincoln’s childhood in 1817. Directed by A.J. Edwards and produced by Terrence Malick, this visually stunning film lyrically expresses the wilderness of the Lincoln's world. With an elegant touch and extreme attention to historical accuracy, "The Better Angels" shows the austerity of the era and reveals what shaped one of history’s most distinct leaders.
