Israeli human-rights lawyer Lea Tsemel is a force that won’t be deterred. Having defended Palestinians against a host of criminal charges in Israeli courts for nearly five decades, she is a staunch supporter of compassion within the court system. Frequently subjected to harsh criticism in the press and in the public view, Tsemel remains optimistically steadfast in her belief that justice can be served.

Ce film de Rachel Leah Jones et Philippe Bellaïche esquisse le portrait complexe d'une légende vivante, un tableau empreint de rage, d'espoir et de sens de l'utopie
