The Fiery Trial

October 2009
Matt Lauterbach (Script Development)

The Fiery Trial, a 7-minute film that was part of the "Abraham Lincoln Transformed" exhibit at the Chicago History Museum from October 10, 2009 through April 12. 2010, examines how Lincoln grappled with the issue of slavery. It tells the story of Lincoln's profound transformation from his inaugural promise of "leaving slavery untouched" in the South to arriving at the radical decision to free the slaves by executive order via the Emancipation Proclamation.
