Anita, a new documentary by Academy-Award-winning filmmaker Frieda Mock about Anita Hill and her role in the controversial Supreme Court confirmation hearings for Clarence Thomas, has debuted to sold-out audiences at the Sundance Film Festival.

While you will have to wait to see the incendiary film (in which Hill participated) in theaters, a trailer has been released to the public.

The film revisits Hill’s contentious testimony and the hate she encountered for coming forward with sexual harassment allegations against Clarence Thomas, who would eventually be confirmed to the Supreme Court by one of the narrowest margins in U.S. Senate history.

Over 20 years later, Hill’s story still stirs up strong feelings on both sides. Take a look at the preview and let us know what you think.
