Twelve men on a jury must decide the fate of an eighteen year old boy who is accused of murdering his father.
The official description:
"Henry Fonda, Lee J. Cobb, Ed Begley and Jack Klugman lead in this tense, courtroom drama -- nominated for three Oscars including Best Picture -- about one juror determined to sway the opinions of eleven others.
Eleven jurors are convinced that the defendant is guilty of murder. The twelfth has no doubt of his innocence. How can this one man steer the others toward the same conclusion? It's a case of seemingly overwhelming evidence against a teenager accused of killing his father in "one of the best pictures ever made" (The Hollywood Reporter)."
