This passionate, uplifting celebration of the human spirit received outstanding acclaim from critics coast-to-coast! Jason Patric (SPEED 2: CRUISE CONTROL, SLEEPERS) is August King, a young man whose life is changed forever when he risks everything to help a beautiful woman (Thandie Newton -- THE TRUTH ABOUT CHARLIE, MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE II) on a courageous -- and very dangerous -- search for a new life. Desperate yet determined, the two set out on a harrowing journey toward freedom ... and find in each other the strength to overcome incredible odds! Also featuring Sam Waterson (LAW AND ORDER) and Larry Drake (L.A. LAW), THE JOURNEY OF THE AUGUST KING is inspiring entertainment you don't want to miss.
