Director Dawn Porter talks about her documentary "John Lewis: Good Trouble".

JOHN LEWIS: GOOD TROUBLE is in select theaters and on demand since July 3, 2020.

Using  interviews and rare archival footage, "JOHN LEWIS: GOOD TROUBLE" chronicles Lewis' 60-plus years of social activism and legislative  action on civil rights, voting rights, gun control, health-care reform  and immigration. Using present-day interviews with Lewis, now 80 years  old, Porter explores his childhood experiences,  his inspiring family and his fateful meeting with Dr. Martin Luther King  Jr. in 1957. In addition to her interviews with Lewis and his family, Porter's  primarily cinéma verité film also includes interviews with political  leaders, Congressional colleagues, and other people who figure  prominently in his life.
