The Juror tells the story of a single mother who becomes embroiled in a dangerous plot when she’s chosen to serve as a juror in the trial of a powerful mobster.
During the jury selection process, artist and single mother Annie Laird is evaluated not only by the judge and attorneys, but by a lethal onlooker as well - a mysterious figure known only as Teacher, who selects the vulnerable Annie to help him tamper with the jury.
A vote to acquit is the only thing that ensures her and her son’s safety, but the shadowy figure pulling the strings may not let it end there.
Teacher helps to bring out her inner strength and not only does she succeed, but in the course of succeeding finds the strength to eventually turn the tables on him.
