The film is an adaptation of Solomon Northup's 1853 memoir of the same name. Northup was a New York State-born free negro who was kidnapped in Washington, D.C. in 1841 and sold into slavery. He worked on plantations in the state of Louisiana for twelve years before his release.
I am predicting that 12 Years A Slave gets the Oscar for Best Picture. I don't expect Ejiofor to win Best Actor. I am predicting that Matthew McConaughey get the Oscar for Best Actor for his performance in Dallas Buyers Club.
