Fabrizio Collini murders a wealthy industrialist, but the act exposes a Nazi-era crime and a family's hidden past. A young defense attorney, Caspar Leinen, takes the case, facing threats and memory's shadows as the truth emerges in the courtroom. The film blends legal thriller tension with historical drama, probing justice, guilt, and responsibility in postwar Germany. With restrained performances and careful pacing, it asks what memory owes the present.
