Terry Green, director of the 2002 Grand Prize winner Almost Salinas at the Stony Brook Film
Festival, returns with Heavens Fall, a searing, moving re-creation of one man's quest for justice during
the infamous Scottsboro Boys trial in 1931, in which nine black hoboes were accused of a
heinous crime. Featuring a strong ensemble led by Academy Award winner Timothy Hutton and
2005 Oscar nominee David Strathairn, Heavens Fall tells a heartbreaking but ultimately inspirational
story whose repercussions are still felt to this day. Produced by Anna Marie Crovetti, Gloria Everett,
Wade W. Danielson. Cinematographer: Paul Sanchez.
