Defender

Adachi represents a young African American man who is charged with assaulting police officers after being falsely accused of a crime in a case with racial overtones. In this era of mass incarceration and police shootings of young African American men, how do we, as a society, grapple with the issues of racism and implicit bias in policing and its consequences for those who question police authority? The film also follows the Public Defender's public battle to allow his office to represent immigrants in deportation proceedings in post-Trump America. Over 1,000 immigrants in the San Francisco immigration court are detained without lawyers; Adachi and other city leaders mobilize the community to support an initiative to provide public defenders to poor immigrants and their families.

Jeff Adachi Was Good As Supporting Actress Her Emotions Were Good!

You know... sometimes when you watch a film... in the first few minutes, it is clear that the film is going to be special.

Great writing, great pacing, great story telling, and a perfect ending

This is epic! First of all Michael Smith. Tone of his voice, the way he using the words and emotions, his facial expressions... He is pure talent and deep experience! Jeff Adachi Jus GODDESS!
