Der Liebhaber auf der Anklagebank

Jude, a humble cargo handler, is framed by the wealthy Dorian to take the fall for a hit-and-run crime. The presiding judge turns out to be Dane, his lover from whom he had abruptly parted three years ago. The former lovers now find themselves on opposite sides – one in the dock, the other on the judge's bench. Dane, while placing Jude under special custody and housing him separately, interrogates him about the truth behind his departure with a mix of love and hate, simultaneously and secretly gathering evidence against the real culprit. Together, they join forces to confront the powerful Lancaster family, overcoming familial obstacles and life-or-death crises, and clearing Jude's name. After enduring numerous hardships, the two resolve their past misunderstandings, and at a seaside chapel, they pledge a lifetime of commitment to each other.
