A dead baby is discovered in a barn on an Amish farm, and it shakes Lancaster County to its core. However, the police investigation leads to a more shocking discovery: circumstantial evidence suggests that eighteen-year-old Kathy Fisher, an unmarried Amish mother of a newborn, took the baby's life. When Ellie Hathaway, a disillusioned big-city lawyer, comes to Paradise, Pennsylvania to defend Katie, two cultures collide. For the first time in her distinguished career, Ellie encounters a justice system very different from her own. Deeply immersed in the world of “ordinary” people, the lawyer must find a way to Katie’s soul. Unraveling the complex tangle of a murder case, Ellie also tries to deal with her own fears and desires when a man from whom she broke up many years ago re-enters her life. Seamlessly moving from psychological drama to descriptions of scenes in the courtroom, “The Simple Truth "is not only a wonderful story about the life of such a closed and unusual community as the Amish, but also a moving exploration of the bonds of love, friendship and the difficulty of making the right choice. For the first time in Russian!
