The Night Of (2016)Criminal Justice
A probing, contemporary look at crime, the presumption of guilt and the urban prison system, 'The Night Of' centres around the police investigation of a murder on Manhattan's Upper West Side. The prime suspect in the case - a college student, the son of immigrant parents - finds himself and his family thrown into the pit of NYC's criminal, legal, penal and judicial system after his arrest and imprisonment. Written by Steven Zaillian and Richard Price, 'The Night Of' takes an unvarnished look at both the city's multifaceted criminal justice system and the purgatory of Riker's Island.
