Sam. Sam's flight for freedom leads him to Fritz's farm, where they both face the wrath of slave hunters, particularly a man named Jervis. As tension rises, Fritz and his family must navigate the dangers posed by those who seek to uphold the institution of slavery while also showing compassion towards those affected by it.
