A murder in high society, an innocent man sentenced to death and a witness who arrives too late. ORDEAL BY INNOCENCE is a chilling family drama in which the truth arrives like an uninvited guest, destroying the painstakingly cultivated façade of decency and order. No consolation, no triumph – just a creeping realisation: innocence is no longer a virtue, but an imposition. A rediscovery!
