| This made-for-television movie depicts the real-life circumstances of Lenell Geter (Dorian Harewood, Full MetaI Jacket), a black engineer who, through a series of coincidences, sloppy poIice work, judiciaI disinterest and prejudice, is imprisoned for an armed robbery he did not commit. Certain that his innocence wiIl be obvious, he pleads not guiIty and waits to have his day in court-but the slow pace of the system and the indifference of the courts and Iawyers involved turn this into an excruciating wait for Geter, his family and friends. OnIy through the effort of his Iawyer (Dabney CoIeman, Tootsie), assisted by the NAACP, and of Geter's employer and coIIeagues, does the underlying prejudice come to Iight, both in the media and in the court. Also stars Hoyt Axton, Debbi Morgan and Paul Winfield. |
