Watch the Trailer to the New Provocative Movie "Union Bound" Here

Just in time for Black History Month comes the provocative award-winning Civil War film, Union Bound. The movie, with lots of Christian undertones, will hit theaters nationwide on February 12, 2016, coinciding with Black History Month. Distributed by Hannover House/Medallion Releasing/Universal, the film is based on the actual diaries of Joseph Hoover, an unlikely survivor of the Underground Railroad.
Sean Stone (son of famed director Oliver Stone) plays real life soldier Joseph Hoover, who receives the help of freed slaves on his journey back to the Union in this story based on his own diaries. Directed by Harvey Lowry, Union Bound co-stars Randy Wayne (To Save a Life; The Dukes of Hazzard: The Beginning), Issac C. Singleton (Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl), Christian Fortune (New Years Eve) and Drew Seeley (High School Musical). Cactus Moser (Wynonna & the Big Noise) recorded the theme song and makes an appearance as a wounded soldier.
Union Bound is the amazing true story of Joseph Hoover a Union Soldier who witnessed many incredible moments during the terrible carnage of the CIVIL WAR. He wrote two diaries which survive today. In 1864 he was captured at the battle of the Wilderness and was taken to the notorious camp "Andersonville". After four months he was transferred to Florence, SC to a new camp. Together with a friend he escaped. They were aided by slaves and what is now known as the "underground railroad" to get to freedom. Joseph was later wounded in the war but survived. After the war he went back to his farm in upstate New York and worked as a cabinet maker. He went on to live to be 84.
A companion book (WND Books, ISBN: 9781944229252, Paperback, $16.95, 5.5 x 8.25, 272 pages) will be in stores on May 2, 2016.
