Steve McQueen's Oscar-tipped 12 Years a Slave is a biopic of Solomon Northup, a free man kidnapped and sold into slavery in the 1840s. The director tells Catherine Shoard why it's important for him to tell stories that haven't been heard. Chiwetel Ejiofor, who plays Northup in McQueen's film, explains why the story is still pertinent today
