Before And After

Meryl Streep and Liam Neeson face every parent's second-worse nightmare: their beloved son (Edward Furlong) seems to have committed a murder, and the polarizing effect on their family is immediate: mother wants the truth, father wants to cover it up and save his son's life, and both are forced to confront a painful conundrum: when the needs of a family conflict with the needs of the world at large, which side wins? Alfred Molina costars in this riveting moral drama from director Barbet Schroeder ("Reversal of Fortune").
