After a group of individuals kills his brother, Pastor John Corell (Eric Roberts) sets out to settle the score with everyone involved in his murder.

"All men are not created equal. It is the purpose of the Government to make them so." This is the premise of the Showtime film adaption of Kurt Vonnegut's futuristic short story Harrison Bergeron. The film centers around a young man (Harrison) who is smarter than his peers, and is not affected by the usual "Handicapping" which is used to train all Americans so everyone is of equal intelligence.

After a group of individuals kills his brother, Pastor John Corell (Eric Roberts) sets out to settle the score with everyone involved in his murder.

Quand une personne meurt de façon accidentelle, le ciel envoie un ange : Mr Jones (plus tard remplacé par Mr. Smith) pour amener cette personne au tribunal où siège le juge Jepthah Othniel qui statue selon les cas soit de l'ascension, soit de la descente en fonction de la vie qu'a menée la personne. Or, Jones n'est pas un ange comme les autres, il est l'avocat qui plaide la cause des morts auprès du tribunal. Et, grâce au plaidoyer de Jones, qui met en lumière les aspects positifs de la vie de la personne, cette dernière peut bénéficier d'une condamnation à vivre, c'est-à-dire qu'elle peut revenir sur Terre pendant trois jours avec tous ses souvenirs intacts sous l'apparence physique qu'elle avait avant de mourir sans que personne ne la reconnaisse. Et ce à un moment crucial de sa vie par rapport à un regret ou à un mauvais choix afin de changer le cours des événements et de se donner une seconde chance.
