The 10th District Court: Moments of Trial

An astonishing window into the workings of the French judicial system. 12 miscreants (whittled down from 169 documented cases) face a stern but humane female magistrate as they attempt to defend themselves with varying degrees of truthfulness and self-delusion. Think Judge Judy, but with class.
