The case that inspired the new movie "Fruitvale Station"
Years before Trayvon Martin crossed paths with George Zimmerman, the killing of Oscar Grant made national headlines, and triggered protests across the country. Grant's story is the subject of the new movie "Fruitvale Station." Unlike the Martin case, there were plenty of witnesses to Grant's death, and many recorded it with their cell phone cameras. We want to warn you it may be difficult to watch. CNN's Kyung Lah looks at what happened.

The director behind "Fruitvale Station"
Just as the story of Trayvon Martin is resonating with so many people across the county, the 2009 killing of Oscar Grant deeply moved a young film student named Ryan Coogler. Grant was shot by a transit officer at a train station in Oakland, California. Coogler said it could have been him on that platform, since he was the same age as Grant, and says he wore similar clothes. Now "Fruitvale Station" Coogler's highly anticipated film, is hitting theaters. Wolf talked with Coogler.
