520 _aSolomon Northup is a free black man in 1840s America. He makes his living as a fiddle player, and his wife is a teacher. He is shanghaied by a pair of nefarious white men, and soon finds himself on a ship headed to New Orleans where he is informed he will be called Platt and is sold into slavery by an unscrupulous businessman. As he toils away for the kindhearted but conflicted plantation owner Mr. Ford, who recognizes that Platt is both educated and an artist, he butts head with Ford's underlings, especially the casually cruel Tibeats. After they have a violent altercation, Ford fears for his slave's life and sells him to Mr. Epps, an alcoholic sadist who owns a cotton plantation. Though Epps reads from the bible to his property, as he frequently refers to his slaves, he is himself not immune to sins of the flesh. He has taken the young Patsey -- his best cotton picker -- as his lover, and this doesn't sit well at all with his severe wife, whose particular hatred for blacks and her jealousy fuels her many degrading actions toward Patsey. Solomon bides his time, attempts to preserve a modicum of self-respect, and waits for the chance to reclaim his rightful name as well as his family.
