1/5

Justice often moves painfully slowly, and so does Justice (Justiça), a documentary by Maria Ramos about low-level criminal courts in Brazil that at times might be mistaken for an unedited video feed from a courthouse security camera.

3/4

The film brings to mind the good and bad of two other courtroom documentaries, 10th District Court and Sisters in Law.
