West Wing creator Aaron Sorkin's drama about the trial of two Guantanamo Bay Marines and the lawyers who defend them dares to ask: “When should a soldier not follow orders?”

Two young marines are charged with the murder of the company scapegoat. Defending them is a recent Ivy League graduate putting in his time in the military to pay off his scholarship. The case seems open and shut, an easy plea bargain, until a female Navy Commander starts asking inconvenient questions. But how can justice be done when the accused, their counsel, and the witnesses come from worlds so far apart that understanding seems hopeless and trust impossible?
