The premise
Here’s the bit.
A group of enslaved people meets Harriet Tubman outside a barn in 1852. She promises to guide them to freedom, then races across the farm with flips, leaps and an unexpected burst of parkour. Her bewildered followers try to keep up, only to discover that the journey has barely begun.
