Description
When the prestigious law firm of Wayne, Rothstein, and Lincoln catches two major cases—a rape case against a white NBA star who allegedly raped a black stripper, and a murder case against a black rapper who allegedly killed a gay couple and two policemen—Bill O'Neil and Ben Turner are tasked with handling these racially charged litigations. The cases hit emotional chords with the two lawyers and force them to reckon with their interracial relationships and families. Will the racial tension of their cases destroy them or make them stronger?
