Novembro de 1975. Início do segundo julgamento de Pierre Goldman, militante francês da esquerda radical. Durante o seu primeiro julgamento, Goldman havia sido condenado a pena de prisão perpétua por ter cometido quatro assaltos à mão-armada, dos quais teriam resultado duas mortes. Após declarar a sua inocência relativamente a esta última acusação, o julgamento transforma-se numa cause célèbre que reflecte as tensões políticas, ideológicas e raciais que marcam os anos 70 na Europa. Evasivo e provocador, Goldman contribui para o mediatismo em torno de um caso que dividiu o estado francês e alimentou a polarização entre a esquerda intelectual e a direita conservadora.

The Goldman Case is a masterclass in how to grippingly direct (and edit!) a courtroom drama that takes place almost entirely in a single room without needless embellishments (and, furthermore, is shot in the television format that corresponds to the time when the trial was held). In terms of acting and the screenplay, The Goldman Case is equal to Anatomy of a Fall, at whose centre stands a similarly complicated character and which raises similar questions (Doesn’t the one who can tell the more convincing story and give a better performance win in court? Do words have more weight than actions in the end?). And though it involves a case from the 1970s (a left-wing Jewish activist denies murder charges), in the second plane the film delivers an almost sociological overview of French society at the time, the clash between the right and the left that plays out in the courtroom, the inability to see a person outside of the box in which we have placed them based on their political orientation or background, and the unwillingness to see that some facts can be black and white at the same time, all of which is in some ways reminiscent of today’s culture wars. 85%
