Powerful district attorney (Mercedes Ruehl) and strong-willed defence attorney (James Woods) go head to head in a courtroom struggle where everyone proves to be a victim, yet no-one can be found guilty.

Danny Davis is a defence lawyer who believes in taking on any case as long as the price is right. But his cold detachment is soon turned to an explosive rage by the shocking accusations that imprisons an average American family; charges that will see them tried and found guilty, not in the courtroom, but in the newspapers and on TV. After 6 years and 16 million dollars, the longest and most expensive trial in history could end with the dismissal of all charges, without a single conviction.

Based on a true story of scandal that tore apart a family and a nation. And the story of one man's fight for the truth.
