Liberal activist lawyer Jedediah (Gene Hackman) alienated daughter Maggie (Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio) years ago when she discovered his many affairs. Now a conservative corporate lawyer, Maggie agrees to go up against her father in court.

As her mother begs for peace, Maggie takes on her dad in a trial that turns increasingly personal and nasty. Wikipedia
