Blind to outside influences, entrusted with the fate of the accused, the juror is the single most powerful image of the American justice system. The court promises anonymity, in return, the juror promises impartiality. In an ideal world, the juror can vote guilty or innocent and get on with his or her life. But in reality it’s not as simple as that.

A single mother (Demi Moore) becomes embroiled in a dangerous game when she is chosen to serve as a juror in the trial of a powerful mobster. A vote to acquit is the only thing that ensures her and her son’s safety, but the shadowy figure pulling the strings (Alec Baldwin) might not let it end there.
