Mississippi 1964. Drie mensenrechtenactivisten worden op gruwelijke wijze vermoord. Reden genoeg voor onderzoek. Twee FBI agenten, de jonge Ward en de wat oudere, doorgewinterde Anderson, merken al snel dat ze niet welkom zijn in het stadje.
Nee, helaas is Mississippi Burning nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
