Le procès Goldman
The film delves into the gripping second trial of Pierre Goldman, a far-left activist who had been convicted of multiple armed robberies resulting in the deaths of two pharmacists. In 1975, Goldman found himself back in court in France, vehemently declaring his innocence. Twenty years before the O.J. Simpson case, the Goldman trial mirrored the political, ideological, and racial tensions that permeated 1970s France and Europe. Regarded as the trial of the century, it deeply polarized the nation, exacerbating the divide between the conservative right and the intellectual left.
Director Cedric Kahn immerses viewers in the complexities of the judicial process, placing us in the shoes of the jurors and illuminating the inherent limitations of the justice system. This courtroom drama masterfully navigates the intertwining realms of legal order and human chaos, offering a riveting exploration of truth, justice, and societal upheaval.
