Synopsis
In Freetown, the capital of Sierra Leone, United Nations soldiers guard a heavily fortified building known as the "special court." Inside, Issa Sesay awaits his trial. Prosecutors say Sesay is a war criminal, guilty of crimes against humanity. His defenders describe him as a reluctant fighter who played a crucial role in bringing peace. Here, we observe the trial with unprecedented access to prosecutors, defense attorneys, victims and, from behind bars, Issa Sesay himself.
