THE ALLEGATION

Season 1 - 7x30' | International Premiere
In German with French & English subtitles
Ep. 1&2

Synopsis
25 defendants, 300 trial days and a legal scandal that has gone down in the history of jurisprudence: In this thrilling legal drama, bestselling author Ferdinand von Schirach transports the so-called "Worms Trials", a German legal scandal from the nineties into the present. The result is a gripping, current legal drama about hysteria in social media, collective anger and how the hunger for revenge can overlook the victims.

Note from the artistic direction
This series carries a permanent sense of strangeness. Falsely procedural, it is everything but classic, particularly because of the exceptional acting and the chemistry between the two main actors Peter Kurth and Narges Rashidi.
