Synopsis

When a state senator's wife is killed in a drive-by shooting, everyone assumes he was the real target. But as the murder trial gets underway, the case unearths long-buried secrets from the past. The presiding judge, Sonia Klonsky, finds herself confronting her own history with a group of radical friends from the 1960s. The courtroom drama forces a generation to reckon with the choices they made and the lives they changed forever.
