Mary Surratt is the lone female charged as a co-conspirator in the assassination trial of Abraham Lincoln. As the whole nation turns against her, she is forced to rely on her reluctant lawyer to uncover the truth and save her life.
At the very beginning of the United State, from a justice system that doesn't envy much to the present one for being much more sophisticated. And the movie doesn't try to avoid or forgive it. It is straight forward, and supported by major actors, and makes you question our foundations and the world still today.
