Documentary about 4 cases tried before South Africa's Truth and Reconcilliation Commission, a unique method of justice. Rather than seeking punitive or retributive means of punishment, offenders apply for amnesty, on the condition that the truth will set them free. There are several confrontations between killers and victim's families, and scenes of amazing compassion and forgiveness (as well as hardened justification and perplexity).
