Description:

South Africa, 1963. Ten men are arrested on a farm for plotting sabotage against the country's oppressive government. Tenacious lawyer Bram Fisher takes on the case as lead counsel and discovers that political leader Nelson Mandela is among them. Mandela encourages the defendants to plead not guilty and expose the government's systemic corruption. With the trial's outcome appearing grim, Mandela delivers his powerful "I'm Prepared to Die" speech, defending the African National Congress's resistance. Will his words save the men's lives?
