Cuestión de justicia
Mrs. Coleman (uncredited)
Cuenta la historia real del joven abogado Bryan Stevenson y de su histórica batalla por la justicia. Después de licenciarse en Harvard, Bryan recibe ofertas de trabajo muy lucrativas. Pero él prefiere poner rumbo a Alabama para defender a personas que han sido condenadas erróneamente o que carecían de recursos para tener una representación legal adecuada, y lo hace con el apoyo de la activista local Eva Ansley. Uno de sus primeros y más turbulentos casos es el de Walter McMillian, que en 1987 fue sentenciado a la pena muerte por el asesinato de una chica de 18 años, a pesar de que las pruebas demostraban ostensiblemente su inocencia. En los años posteriores, Bryan se ve envuelto en un laberinto de maniobras legales y políticas y de un racismo abierto y descarado mientras lucha por Walter y otros como él, a pesar de tenerlo todo en su contra, incluido el sistema legal.
