In his first documentary, Spike Lee looks at the murder of four little girls in the 1963 bombing of a Birmingham church and the role it played in energizing the civil rights movement. The film shows, through the voices of adults and children during the civil rights movement, the intense emotion in the African-American community on the issue of children as activists. When all was said and done, it was schoolchildren of all ages who bore the daily responsibility of implementing the desegregation dreams of adults. This film pays homage to these girl children and to the power of the political participation of children. Directed by Spike Lee. Running time ? 102 minutes."
