One woman made a choice to take a stand. On April 16, Kerry Washington is Anita Hill and Wendell Pierce is Clarence Thomas in Confirmation.Below, check out a first tease for the HBO presentation debuting SATURDAY, APRIL 16.

HBO Films' CONFIRMATION stars Kerry Washington (Emmy® and Golden Globe nominee for "Scandal"; "Django Unchained," "Ray"), Wendell Pierce (HBO's "Treme" and "The Wire"), Greg Kinnear (Oscar® and Golden Globe nominee for "As Good as It Gets"; "Little Miss Sunshine"), Jeffrey Wright (Emmy® and Golden Globe winner for HBO's "Angels in America"; HBO's "Boardwalk Empire"), Eric Stonestreet (Emmy® winner for "Modern Family") and Jennifer Hudson (Oscar® winner for "Dreamgirls").

Written by Susannah Grant (Oscar® nominee for "Erin Brockovich") and directed by Rick Famuyiwa ("Dope," "The Wood"), the film details the explosive 1991 Clarence Thomas Supreme Court nomination hearings, which brought the country to a standstill and forever changed the way we think about sexual harassment, victims' rights and modern-day race relations.
