From the award-winning director of Mad Unicorn comes The Evil Lawyer, a searing legal drama that cracks open Thailand's justice system -- and asks what it really takes to fight for the truth when the system is broken and the odds are stacked against you. The series' global Netflix premiere is scheduled for June 11.
As Thailand's first courtroom drama of this scale, The Evil Lawyer reimagines courtroom storytelling for a global audience: grounded in deep research into real procedures and cases, laced with dark humour and emotion, and unafraid to confront social wounds, systemic injustices and moral grey zones that shape everyday life.
At the centre is Mek (Nat Kitcharit), an idealistic young lawyer who believes the law should protect the powerless. That belief shatters when he's framed for the murder of the son of Anan (Songsit Roongnophakunsri), a powerful police chief.
