Son of the South

Son of the South (2021) is a historical drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Barry Alexander Brown. Lucas Till stars as Bob Zellner — a grandson of a Klan member from Montgomery, Alabama — who faces an impossible choice when the Civil Rights Movement arrives at his door: honour his family's past or break with everything he was raised to believe.

Bob crosses the line that white Southerners were never supposed to cross, joining student activists fighting against segregation. Julia Ormond and Brian Dennehy co-star, with Cedric the Entertainer as Martin Luther King Jr. The script draws from Zellner's own memoir; the real Bob became the first white field secretary for SNCC and paid for it with beatings and arrests.
