Does capital punishment comprise a cruel punishment under the 8th Amendment? Is it an effective deterrent? Is the concept of retribution a desirable aspect of our system? These and other questions are debated in depth by lawyers involved in the trial of a convicted murderer. Film is left open-ended so students can consider the death penalty.
