11-year-old Mark Sway, torn between what he knows and what he can never tell. A hitman will kill Mark if the boy reveals what he knows.

And his only ally is a courageous attorney who risks her career – and unexpectedly, her life – for him.
"Based on the book of the same name written by John Grisham (famous for cool thrillers such as 'The Firm' and 'The Pelican Brief'), this movie gave Susan Sarandon the BAFTA award for Best Actress, plus an Oscar nomination. Though it doesn't have a brilliant script, the production is sustained precisely by the actress' performance and should satisfy those who like courtroom movies."
