Jakarta, CNN Indonesia -- Isu perbudakan dan rasialisme pernah menghantui Amerika Serikat (AS). Masa suram itu membuat banyak sineas terinspirasi untuk mengangkat kisahnya ke layar lebar.
Bukan maksud untuk menyemai dendam, melainkan sebagai pengingat agar tragedi yang sama tidak terulang kembali.
Festival Film Sundance mengapresiasi hal tersebut. Festival tahunan ini digelar di Park City, Salt Lake City, Utah dan Ogden, AS.
Salah satu film yang bercerita tentang pemimpin kelompok budak pemberontak, Nat Turner, memenangkan dua penghargaan sekaligus.
Bertajuk The Birth of a Nation, film itu memenangkan kategori Grand Jury Prize dan Audience Award di Festival Film Sundance.
Film ini disutradarai oleh Nate Parker, si hitam manis serba bisa, juga dikenal sebagai aktor, musisi, produser dan penulis.
"Film ini sangat menegangkan," kata Robert Redford, aktor lawas yang turut mendirikan Sundance Institute pada 1980.
Pihak Fox Searchlight telah mengakuisisi film The Birth of a Nation US$17,5 juta. Harga akuisisi termahal sepanjang penyelenggaraan Festival Film Sundance.
Sedangkan penghargaan The Grand Jury Prize for Documentary dimenangkan oleh film Weiner, yang berkisah mengenai perjalanan politik Anthony Weiner.
Penghargaan The Audience Award for Documentary diberikan kepada film Jim: The James Foley Story, juru foto yang tewas di tangan ISIS, pada Agustus 2014.
Film Swiss Army Man yang melibatkan tiga Daniel: Radcliffe (aktor) serta Kwan dan Daniel Scheinert (sutradara) juga memenangkan penghargaan Directing.
