ALead attorney Shigemori takes on the defense of robbery murder suspect Misumi. His client freely admits his guilt, despite facing the death penalty. As he digs deeper into the case, the once-confident Shigemori begins to doubt his client’s confession. The latest film by Hirokazu KOREEDA is an outstandingly-acted and morally complex, dark thriller.
