Is the biggest war crime of all war itself?
On February 24, 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine; a short time later, the ICC issued an arrest warrant against Vladimir Putin for alleged war crimes.
On October 7, 2023, Hamas committed a cruel massacre of Israeli civilians. Israel responded with the largest offensive on Gaza ever. The ICC Chief Prosecutor announced that he would prosecute any kind of war crimes on both sides. But what has come to pass?
Focusing on ICC Chief Prosecutors past and present, this film gives a complex legal process a face, and viewers will understand why wars of aggression can hardly be brought to justice when the major world powers - China, Russia, India and the United States - are unwilling to recognize the ICC as a global court.
