A smart legal thriller by Clint Eastwood: future family man Justin Kemp (Nicholas Hoult) is to take part in a murder trial as a juror. A duty, which he fulfills even though he would rather be at home with his heavily pregnant wife. The defendant in the case is said to have killed his girlfriend on a country road one rainy night after an argument in a bar. Justin quickly finds himself in a moral dilemma: he was also in the bar that night - and then had an alleged wildlife accident in the pouring rain. Now it's up to him as juror number 2: Should he dissuade the other jurors, almost all of whom are convinced of the defendant's guilt, from convicting an innocent man? And risk being found out in the process?
