About
A young, inexperienced public defender is assigned to defend an inmate accused of committing murder while behind bars.
A green public defender must fight an uphill battle against a corrupt system to defend a man accused of killing someone inside a prison cell. This courtroom drama pits raw idealism against the cold, calculated machinery of the legal machine.
