Er hieß Kunta Kinte. Er wurde aus Afrika entführt und 1767 in Amerika zum Sklaven gemacht – nie akzeptierte er seinen Sklavennamen Toby. Seinen Nachkommen haben sein heroisches Aufbegehren nimals vergessen und gaben seine Geschichte von Generation zu Generation weiter – bis sie ein kleiner Junge hörte, der in Tennessee aufwuchs. Er hieß Alex Haley. Mit dem Stammbaum einer Familie erzählt Haley in seinem Pulitzer-preisgekrönten Buch Roots eine Story, die ganz Amerika und die ganze Welt betrifft. 130 Millionen Zuschauer sahen die erste Ausstrahlung der Serie, die Dutzende von Preisen gewann. Auch 30 Jahre später hat David L. Wolpers Produktion noch nichts von ihrer Faszination verloren. Kommen Sie mit auf eine unvergessliche DVD-Reise. |
