It is the hottest day of the year. A storm is in the air. On this day, the last day of a serious and seemingly clear-cut murder trial with overwhelming evidence takes place: A 19-year-old from a slum stabbed his father shortly after midnight in an argument with a very distinctive switchblade knife. The prosecution presented two believable witnesses. Both of them witnessed the teenager committing the act and shortly after saw him fleeing.

Reginald Rose's play "Twelve Angry Men" begins as the trial comes to an end, and the jurors retreat for deliberation. Twelve people of completely different characters and temperaments, whose only commonality is being chosen to reach a unanimous verdict in this murder trial. In a tight, sealed room cut off from the outside world, they deliberate. Since the case seems clear-cut, a swift end to the session is expected. Eleven of the jurors immediately agree: the defendant is guilty. However, one dares to swim against the current and goes against the majority: he has a "reasonable doubt," and therefore argues for not guilty. The decision on a person's life and death is at least worth a fair discussion.
