Con el coraje moral y la feroz determinación de triunfar, sus decisiones cambiarán el destino de las generaciones venideras.
En 1865, mientras la Guerra Civil Americana se acerca a su fin, el presidente Abraham Lincoln propone una enmienda que prohíba la esclavitud en los Estados Unidos. Sin embargo esto plantea un gran dilema: si la paz llega antes de que se apruebe la enmienda, el Sur tendrá poder para rechazarla y mantener la esclavitud; si la paz llega después, decenas de miles de personas seguirán muriendo en el frente. En una carrera contrarreloj para conseguir los votos necesarios, Lincoln se enfrenta a la mayor crisis de conciencia de su vida.
