Directed by Diego Luna and starring Michael Peña (End of Watch, The Lincoln Lawyer), Chavez chronicles the birth of a modern American movement led by famed civil rights leader and labor organizer Cesar Chavez. Torn between his duties as a husband and father and his commitment to bringing dignity and justice to others, Chavez embraced non-violence as he battled greed and prejudice in his struggle for the rights of farm workers. His triumphant journey is a remarkable testament to the power of one individual’s ability to change the system.
