My overall impression

This was a brilliant interpretation of the criminal trial process. As a lawyer, it was exceptionally enlightening to see the adversarial tone between prosecution and defense depicted as a flamenco dance. I’ve never thought of the interplay like that, but it is so spot on!! Also the “jury instructions” were a hoot, no wonder why real jurors get so flustered. I loved every second in this artfully carved piece. Thank you very much!
