In the days before one of the most anticipated fights in boxing history, 23-year-old heavyweight champ Muhammad Ali formed an improbable bond with controversial former Hollywood star Stepin Fetchit. Set in the heady times of the mid-1960s, after years of struggle and a series of Civil Rights victories, Fetch Clay, Make Man explores the true story of two wildly different men, each struggling to create and shape his image and legacy. Will Power’s absorbing tale is a rhythmic, expressive, and innovative exploration of one of the missing pages in America’s history book.
