The shocking true story that rocked England comes to the screen in this searing drama about crime and a travesty of justice. In the 1950s, mentally challenged Derek Bentley becomes friends with dangerous, gun-toting Chris Craig, who idolizes gangster films and dreams of rising in the crime world. However, one violent night will change their destinies forever and lead them to a courtroom where the entire future of the country is about to be changed. (official distributor synopsis)
