Two girls wait in front of a closed courtroom door. Inside, their fathers are seated on opposite sides of the courtroom. The trial is complicated—was it manslaughter or murder? Out in the hallway, the daughters are unsure about what to do.
Tense looks and glances are just some of the piercing cinematic tools deployed in Ordinary Justice. The film examines the legal machinery of a courtroom, but gives greater focus to dynamics playing out in the corridor outside the crucial showdown, between girls connected to both sides of the case.
