American judge Daniel Haywood (Spencer Tracy) presides over the trial of four German jurists accused of "legalising" Nazi atrocities. But as graphic accounts of sterilisation and murder unfold in the courtroom, mounting political pressure for leniency forces Haywood into making the most harrowing and difficult decision of his career. His actions - and those of the other trial participants - make for fascinating, poignant and "continuously exciting" (The New Yorker) entertainment!
