The series centers around the trial by jury in Ghent, capital city of the province East-Flanders. Each province capital city has a court named Assizenhof. It consists of three professional judges, an attorney-general and a jury of twelve ordinary people, who will decide on guilt or the lack of it.
The accused is school headmaster, Frie Palmers. She was married, but the couple got into a nasty divorce. Now the ex-husband accuses his former wife of having murdered their daughter and also of having murdered Frie's best friend years ago. Frie maintains she's innocent of all these facts.
In the series, the viewer gets to know the different jurors. You'll see how they live, what they do in their everyday life, learn about their secrets and hidden agenda. This is what makes this series so good. It will keep the viewers guessing about what they'll decide in the end.
It also helps that all characters are played by good actors. We have a bunch of them in Flanders - and also some good directors and producers, who even make their way in Great-Britain and the USA.
