Daniel Day-Lewis stars in this inspiring and revealing drama that focuses on Lincoln's tumultuous final four months in office as this visionary leader pursues a course of action to end the Civil war, unite a nation divided and abolish slavery.

The lives of a retired psychic, a French tsunami survivor and a London schoolboy intersect, forever changed by what they believe might or must exist in the hereafter.

The progress of the war is seen through Lincoln’s eyes, a very human figure as he contends with Generals who won’t fight and politicians who scheme to usurp him. His wife (Mary Tyler Moore) is driven to the edge of madness by the death of her son and her deteriorating mental health causes him great pain. But after a war more ferocious and bloody than anyone has imagines possible, Lincoln lives just long enough to see his vision realizes before his life is cut tragically by an assassins bullet.
