I won't divulge anything about the movie. What I will say is that it resonated with me on many different levels. I thought about the 1980 case of the Central Park 5 who was accused of rape. When the real criminal came forward, the men were released. They received neither an apology or any kind of help.
Just Mercy touches on injustice, institutional racism in the criminal justice system, class, corruption, and identity. I related to the LGBTQ+ and how poorly we are treated. I've said a lot in just a few sentences. When you see the movie I'm sure it will be clarified.
