All rise.
Hard-nosed liberal lawyer Roman J. Israel has been fighting the good fight forever while others take the credit.

He soon discovers some unsettling truths about the firm – truths that conflict with his values of helping the poor and dispossessed – and finds himself in an existential crisis that leads to extreme actions.
