In the wake of World War II, 11 Allied judges are tasked with weighing the fates of Japanese war criminals in a tense international trial.
In the spring of 1946, judges from 11 Allied nations begin assembling in a war-torn Tokyo hotel to argue the atrocities of Japanese war criminals.
When the judges move to oust Tribunal President Webb, MacArthur must appoint a new leader. The recently arrived justice from India stirs tensions.
With a newly appointed president in place, the tribunal considers crucial testimony. Pal and Röling butt heads as Pal prepares his own judgment.
As the trial comes to a close, Webb learns the majority is writing a judgment without him. But a divided tribunal must still debate final sentencing.
