Okay kiddo, imagine you're watching a really cool movie about a guy named Abraham Lincoln who was the president of the United States a long time ago. This movie is called "Lincoln."
The movie is all about Abraham Lincoln trying to pass a law called the 13th Amendment. Now, this is important because the 13th Amendment was trying to free all the slaves, which means people who were owned by other people and treated unfairly. Abraham Lincoln really believed that everyone should be equal and he wanted to make sure that everyone had the same rights.
But not everyone in the government was on board with this idea. Some people didn't like the idea of freeing the slaves because they wanted to keep them as workers. They thought it would be bad for the economy if all the slaves were freed. So Abraham Lincoln had to work really hard to convince people that the 13th Amendment was the right thing to do.
The movie shows how Abraham Lincoln had to use all his skills as a politician to convince people to vote for the 13th Amendment. He had to make deals with other politicians and use his charm to persuade them to vote for the amendment. It was a very tense time because the future of the country was on the line.
In the end, Abraham Lincoln was successful in getting the 13th Amendment passed. It was a huge victory for him and the country because it meant that all people were free and equal. Even though the movie is a bit complicated, it shows how one person can make a big difference in the world by standing up for what's right.
