Description: The Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination protects the accused against coerced confessions. But is it also also designed to protect those guilty of thought and speech crimes against the over-zealous enforcement of laws that reflect the hysteria of the moment? And what happens to this and other constitutional guarantees under the impact of advanced technologies? These are the questions argued by lawyers in this dramatic, open-ended film.
