Academy Award-winning documentary filmmaker, Jean-Xavier de Lestrade, presents a gripping courtroom thriller, offering a rare and revealing inside look at a high-profile murder trial. In 2001, author Michael Peterson was arraigned for the murder of his wife Kathleen, whose body was discovered lying in a pool of blood on the stairway of their home. Granted unusual access to Peterson's lawyers, home and immediate family, de Lestrade's cameras capture the defense team as it considers its strategic options. "The staircase" is an engrossing look at contemporary American justice that features more twists than a legal bestseller.等陈源发力翻转这辆蓝车的时候，附近十几栋大楼上，已经有上千人在看着他，如果他翻了一半就力竭了，或者根本就一点也撼动不了这辆蓝车，那糗就出大了，那些人肯定会或明或暗地笑他不自量力。
