Plot Summary
In Caen, a bell rings “The Court!” as the camera enters a criminal trial for the first time. Laetitia Ohnona films an incest case within a new judicial body that, unlike the cour d’assises, rules without a jury. Five professional judges alone decide the verdict, raising questions about citizen participation in justice. This documentary offers a rare look at a struggling system while shedding light on one of France’s most pervasive crimes: incest.
