A movie based on a true story#shorts #movie

The Chicago Trial of the Seven focuses on a high-profile, real-life historical trial.
The trial was triggered by protests organized by anti-war groups during the 1968 National Convention in Chicago, where Tom Hayden and seven others were charged with, among other things, inciting a riot. In the courtroom, the defendants, ranging from the radical Abby Hoffman to the stoic Hayden, had different stances and styles of behavior, but all were convinced that their protests were motivated by the pursuit of peace and justice.
On the other hand, the prosecutor representing the government is tough and tries to convict them. The entire trial was full of drama, with both sides exchanging heated words and the defense constantly exposing the irrationality of the trial, as well as showing the people's strong voices against the Vietnam War and social change in those turbulent times. Despite the pressure, the Seven Gentlemen fought for themselves, making the trial an important historical testimony reflecting the clash of social trends at that time.#shorts #film #movie
