Combining bold original animation with extraordinary archival footage, explores the buildup to and unraveling of the Chicago Conspiracy Trial. The film brings viewers inside the courtroom to experience firsthand the drama, legal wrangling and raucous political theater. During the infamous 1968 Democratic national convention, antiwar protesters - denied permits to march and blocked from the political process - fought for their right to be heard. Confronted by Mayor Richard Daley's political machine, backed up by billy clubs and the stinging fog of tear gas, bloody riots splashed nightly on live television. Eight of the most vocal activists were charged and brought to trial in a courtroom circus that pitted activism against the establishment.
