About The Accused 💬

• The case that challenged the system and shocked a nation.

What are the limits of justice? Of social responsibility? A powerful and groundbreaking film upon its release, and still relevant today, 'THE ACCUSED' explores the limits of justice and social responsibility.

• A Lawyer And a Victim.

It happened in a bar. Nobody stopped it. The victim cried for justice. Nobody heard. Except for one lawyer. Together, they confronted the system and shocked the nation.

THE ACCUSED takes a powerful and thought-provoking look at human nature and individual moral conscience, and a judicial process that treats the victim like a criminal.

• On April 18th, 1987, Sarah Tobias stops for a drink at a bar called The Mill.

Jodie Foster gives a powerful performance as the hard-living, fiercely independent Sarah Tobias, who is gang-raped in the back of a neighborhood bar. But that is only the beginning of her ordeal.

• Being a victim was her only crime.

Now she finds herself battling the legal system, not once but twice, as she and her attorney Kathryn Murphy (Kelly McGillis) go after both her attackers and the onlookers whose cheering fueled and encouraged the assault.
