The first major television series to trace the story and influence
of America's highest court.
The first television series to fully profile the inner workings of
the court, the series explores the history, impact and drama of
America's highest court. Interviews with some of the greatest legal
minds in the country - including Chief Justice John Roberts Jr. and
retired justice Sandra Day O'Connor - provide context for key
decisions and hot-button issues of the day. By fusing history with
biography, the series humanizes the enigmatic black-robed figures
who sit on the court, revealing their temperaments, passions,
deeply held personal beliefs and life stories. The series also
explores the dramatic stories of the people whose cases have come
before the court, as well as the often controversial rulings that
govern our everyday lives. David Strathairn narrates.
