Shortly after the end of armed conflict in World War II, Allied representatives led by the unyielding chief prosecutor Robert H. Jackson (Michael Shannon) dedicate themselves to ensuring the Nazi regime answers for the unveiled horrors of the Holocaust.

US Army psychiatrist Douglas Kelley (Rami Malek) is given the crucial task of interviewing Nazi military officials to determine whether they are fit to stand trial: leading to a dramatic psychological duel between himself and former Reichsmarschall Herman Göring (Russell Crowe).

Written and directed by James Vanderbilt and based on the book The Nazi and the Psychiatrist by Jack El-Hai.
