    Morris' documentary offers a stark, unflinching look at the criminal justice system. It's a procedural, yet, it challenges the very notion of what constitutes a fair investigation. The film's focus on evidence and witness testimonies is something I, as a retired Kriminalhauptkommissar, can appreciate. It's a stark reminder of how easily facts can be manipulated. Ein Muss für jeden, der sich für die dunklen Winkel unseres Rechtssystems interessiert.
