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.刚才还满脸怒火，誓要打死陈源的老三和老大同时惊呼，纷纷在火龙扑上他们之前快速退走，老大体型庞大，退得慢了一点，背上立时就着火了。烧得他又蹦又跳，但还是没命地向远处逃走。
