The Price of Resistance
 traces the life of Sala Udin — a revered civil rights activist, community leader, and former Pittsburgh City Councilman. The film captures Udin’s powerful story through rare archival footage, personal reflections, and a compelling interview with a former FBI agent who was active in Mississippi during the civil rights era. While the agent did not monitor Udin directly, his account provides vital context to the government’s surveillance efforts during a volatile period in American history.
The filmmakers were compelled to bring Sala Udin’s story to the screen because of its enduring relevance in today’s ongoing fight for social justice. They felt it was crucial to preserve and amplify his voice — a voice that spoke truth to power during some of the most dangerous moments of the Civil Rights Movement. To ensure the film was grounded in both history and emotion, the production team traveled to Mississippi to interview individuals who lived through that era and offered powerful insight into the movement that shaped Udin. The filmmaking duo also journeyed to southwest Tennessee to interview retired FBI agent 
Cecil Moses
, whose work during the same period revealed stark contrasts in the government's handling of civil unrest.
The documentary also features recognizable figures from Pittsburgh and across the country who speak to Udin’s impact on their lives and communities.
More than a documentary, this film is a tribute to resilience, transformation, and the ongoing pursuit of equity.

A majestic tower in Pittsburgh that defines the city. It stands tall and magnificent in its glory.

In fact, this place has nothing to do with the church, or we can only say that its appearance is like an ancient European cathedral. This is a teaching building, but it is very magnificent and beautiful, and you can go in and take a look inside.
