Five strangers to the judicial process attend a murder trial, where they share their experiences of the courtroom as theatre and testimony as performance. A moving charge against the influence of sensationalism and spectatorship in criminal cases, Adjournment analyzes human motives and empathy by hearing, not seeing, the violence of crime. Angie Driscoll
