VIDEO: Watch the First Look Trailer For BBC's SMALL AXE

The BBC has released a first look trailer for Small Axe, coming this fall to BBC One and BBC iPlayer.

Fifty years ago, on 9 August 1970, 150 protestors marched against police harassment in Notting Hill. This is the true story of the Mangrove 9, a group of Black activists who were arrested for leading the protest and who changed British history by taking a stand against racial discrimination.

'Mangrove' is one of five Small Axe films by Academy Award-winner Steve McQueen.
