In this historical drama, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall announces his retirement. The White House nominates Clarence Thomas as Marshall's replacement. But Thomas's confirmation hearings are rocked by charges that he sexually harassed Anita Hill, a former assistant. As their conflict plays out in public, a White House aide runs a behind-the-scenes campaign to discredit Hill.
