Terror's Advocate

Barbet Schroeder takes us down history's darkest paths in his attempt to illuminate the mystery behind an enigmatic figure, Jacques Vergès.
At the height of an illustrious career, Vergès disappeared without trace for eight years. When he returned, Vergès defended unpopular figures from all political fronts and monsters like Nazi criminal Klaus Barbie and Holocaust denier Roger Garaudy. (official distributor synopsis)
