“Esme’s Story” Plot: After a white nationalist plows his car into a peaceful demonstration and gets away, a survivor takes justice into her own hands.
In addition to Abigail Breslin as Esme Brewer, the cast includes Aisha Dee as Aaliyah Harris, Kyle Schmid as Shaggy, Blaine Kern III as Ancel, Darrin Baker as Judge Morse, Josh Cruddas as Bragg, Kristin Fairlie as Lucy, and Patrice Goodman as Maya Thompson.
The Plot:
Accused is a collection of 15 intense, topical, and exquisitely human stories of crime and punishment. Each episode is a fast-paced provocative thriller exploring a different crime, in a different city, with an entirely original cast. Based on the BBC’s BAFTA-winning crime anthology, each episode opens in a courtroom on the defendant, with viewers knowing nothing about their crime or how they ended up on trial.
Told from the defendant’s point of view through flashbacks, the show holds a mirror up to current times with evocative and emotional stories. In the end, audiences will discover how an ordinary person gets caught up in extraordinary circumstances and how one impulsive decision can impact the course of that life – and the lives of others – forever.
