The Twelve is a gripping courtroom drama that tells the unique stories of 12 ordinary Australians who are part of the jury in a disturbing murder trial where Kate Lawson (Kate Mulvany) has been accused of killing her teenage niece.
Behind their anonymous exteriors, the jurors hide dark stories — from shameful secrets and shattered dreams to personal trauma and glimmering hope.
