description: In Clanton, Mississippi, the life of the ten-year-old girl is shattered by two drunken and remorseless young men. The mostly white town reacts with shock and horror until her black father acquires an assault rifle and takes justice into his own outraged hands. For ten days, as burning crosses and the crack of sniper fire spreads through the streets of Clanton, the nation sits spellbound while young defense attorney Jake Brigance struggles to save his client's life. . . . and then his own.
