A young lawyer defends a killer, ( Collini) who killed lawyer's mentor. While proceeding we found revealing mystery behind killing. Although movie starts very slowly and nothing going ahead till half hour gone, but after that movie starts to grip you and then enjoying shocking suspense till the end. Details of old time law and its codes are described well and we realised that same low is used to save Collini while he could not prove real accused before. Must watchable. Good acting by leading actors. perfect casing.
Masterpiece. So great that this piece of German history is brought by German filmmakers. Acting and script realistic. Story line exactly the correct pace.
It's a good movie that has an entertaining plot and Elyas M'Barek's acting is excellent; it is highly recommended.
It is a German gem that deserves to be remembered.

May be slow at the beginning , but after first 45 min. The movie take another long and deep way of old events , i like it , heart touching and tell us true events .
Worth watching.
Maybe this story is not true, but there are thousands of stories like this.
It is a memorial to justice, not to law(s). And a reminder against fascism and similar idologies.
Watch the movie, read the book. Once, twice and more. Tell all the people you know.
This movie is a reminder
