电影是依照华盛顿档案馆的记录，将20世纪初期发生在西点军校的一件种族歧视案如实地再现出来。
作为西点军校惟一的黑人学员约翰逊·威塔克思想中保有报效国家的信念到达这里。就在哲学考试即将到来的时候，一天他突然遭到了几名学员的殴打。事后，奄奄一息的他被从血泊中救起，但是却被指出制造伪证，说他割自己的耳朵，用头撞镜子，捆绑自己装死，目的但是逃避考试。
担任威塔克的律师是张伯伦和格林，来自哈佛名校的格林律师因为自己是黑人，在一次次重复地遭受耻辱之中，他顽强地站了起来。他为了找到指责威塔克的索斯沃斯的过失，找到15年前不让索斯沃斯出庭作证的海德先生，又从犹太学生那里证实了现场留下的大量血迹，以推翻校医的伪证。但是，法庭仍然判威塔克有罪，为此他提起上诉。一年后，被总统推翻，是出自政治的考虑。之后，他被军校开除，回到南卡罗来纳，获得了法学学位证书，在中学里做了校长。
