A taut legal thriller that pits idealistic lawyers against military hierarchy and institutional corruption, driven by courtroom tension and moral conviction.

When cocky military lawyer Lt. Daniel Kaffee and his co-counsel, Lt. Cmdr. JoAnne Galloway, are assigned to a murder case, they uncover a hazing ritual that could implicate high-ranking officials such as shady Col. Nathan Jessep.
