"Im Zweifel"

One person is dead. And the fate of another lies in the hands of 10 strangers who are locked in a room as jurors on the hottest day of the year to decide guilt or innocence. The case seems clear-cut: a boy from the working class is said to have stabbed his father to death in a fight, there are plenty of witnesses and a murder weapon. But what role does the social class from which the perpetrator and victim come play in reaching a verdict? What influence do prejudices, group dynamics and personal experiences have? The jurors discuss, argue, vote and sweat. Because the air around them is getting thicker and the system is beginning to falter.
