Sinopse
Luis Moreno-Ocampo, the first prosecutor of the International Criminal Court in The Hague, has a mandate to investigate war crimes around the world. While he and the Court may also have faced criticism the film follows a highly passionate, confident prosecutor through daily life and witnesses moments of uniqueness – on political-historical ground but also about human emotions. One man, one Institution and the world of justice that sometimes is so hard to define. The film is shot in the style of a court-house thriller - often behind normally closed doors. It accompanies Ocampo and his team along a highly complex juridical process. Its language, virtually impenetrable to laymen, gains a face during the course of the film.
