12 Angry Men

One of the greatest courtroom films ever made.

Twelve jurors gather to decide the fate of a young man accused of murdering his father. Eleven of them are ready to declare him guilty within minutes. Only one votes “not guilty” — not because he knows the boy is innocent, but because he believes a human life deserves one honest conversation.

Almost the entire film unfolds in a single room, where doubt, prejudice and reason gradually change the course of the discussion.

🏆 Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival and three Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture.
