- Synopsis
- This film recounts the people and events leading up to the one of the most despicable hate-crimes during the height of the civil-rights movement, the bombing of the 16th Street Church in Birmingham, Alabama. In that attack, four little African-American girls lost their lives and a nation was simultaneously revolted, angered and galvanized to push the fight for equality and justice on.

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Director Spike Lee has made some of the most hard-edged and unsettling American films on racism and its effects. Yet none has been as moving as this"
-
"This subject demands consummate screen treatment and now has absolutely gotten it from director/producer Spike Lee"
-
"An important act of historical preservation, a focused and effective film that brings back a dark, important moment in history with startling clarity."
-
"Lee takes a conventional, talking-heads-and-archival-clips approach to the material, but rewardingly establishes an intimate connection with his subjects by devoting considerable time to the personalities and families of the four victims."
