NT LIVE: Prima Facie

Tessa is a thoroughbred. A young, brilliant barrister who loves to win. She has worked her way up from working class origins to be at the top of her game; defending; cross examining and lighting up the shadows of doubt in any case.

Prima Facie takes us to the heart of where emotion and experience collide with the rules of the game.
