Andrew Beckett je právník. Mladý, brilantní právník. Homosexuál, infikovaný virem HIV. Svou nemoc dlouho tají, přesvědčen o tom, že s jeho službou klientům nesouvisí. A pak je jednoho dne propuštěn, údajně pro pracovní neschopnost. Ale Andy ví, proč přišel o místo. Připravily ho o ní předsudky, strach, panika a odpor. Diskriminace. Ví, že jeho čas je sečten, ale nevzdává se. Hledá právníka, který by mu pomohl v procesu s jeho mateřskou firmou - a nachází. Černý Joe Miller není tak úspěšný, jako býval Andy, ale jeho vytrvalá víra v právo z něj činí ideálního spojence. Přesto se však zdráhá přijmout Beckettův případ. Stejně jako obžalovaní, jako porota, jako všichni ostatní, i on nemá rád homosexuály, oškliví si je a štítí se AIDS. A snad právě pro svůj odpor nakonec přijímá, přesvědčen o tom, že ve městě, kde byla vyhlášena americká ústava, zaručují rovnost všech, nelze tento boj vzdát. Soudní spor začíná...
