Lynne Stewart - An American Story - Trailer - 8min
A documentary by : Francis van den Heuvel
Produced by: Jean Pierre Lefebvre (Cinak)
Run time - 52min
To be released in 2011

On Thursday, November 19th 2009, long time civil rights attorney Lynne Stewart was ordered by Judge John G. Koeltl to turn herself in to begin serving a 28-month prison sentence for her 2006 conviction for conspiracy and providing material support to terrorists. This 70 year old woman has devoted her life to the poor, the underprivileged, the black community and justice. Anyone who could not afford for a lawyer could knock at her door. Today, Lynne Stewart is fighting not only for her freedom but for any Americans freedom.
Lynne Stewart did not benefit of justice. Her case became only important after 911.
