When a German officer is assassinated in Nazi-occupied France, the Germans demand justice, and the Vichy government is quick to capitulate. Unable to apprehend the actual culprits, Minister of Justice Joseph Barthélémy decides the execution of token Frenchmen will suffice, but the problem is finding judges and jurors eager to participate in a sham trial of innocent men. The solution is a ''Special Section,'' a court made up of individuals hand-picked for this purpose.
