A verdict that decides life or death. A clash of prejudice and justice.
An intense midnight quarrel leads to the murder of a man. Witnesses take the stand as his 16-year-old son is tried for homicide. With all testimonies against the boy, his fate now hangs by a thread, as 12 jurors find themselves in the throes of rendering the final verdict.
In the stifling heat of the jury room, 12 personalities clash in a bout of logic and intuition, reason and conscience. Caught between conflicting obsessions and prejudices, will the jurors emerge as defenders of justice, or are they destined to become hangmen?
