Today, Alice stands before a judge and there’s no room for error. She must speak up for her children, as custody is being called into question. Can she protect them from their father before it’s too late?

ಇಂದು, ಆಲಿಸ್ ನ್ಯಾಯಾಧೀಶರ ಮುಂದೆ ನಿಂತಿದ್ದಾಳೆ — ತಪ್ಪಿಗೆ ಯಾವುದೇ ಅವಕಾಶವಿಲ್ಲ. ತನ್ನ ಮಕ್ಕಳ ಪಾಲನೆಯ ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆ ವಿಚಾರಣೆಯಲ್ಲಿರುವುದರಿಂದ, ಅವಳು ಅವರ ಪರವಾಗಿ ಧೈರ್ಯವಾಗಿ ಮಾತನಾಡಲೇಬೇಕಾಗಿದೆ. ತುಂಬಾ ತಡವಾಗುವ ಮೊದಲು, ಅವರ ತಂದೆಯಿಂದ ಮಕ್ಕಳನ್ನು ರಕ್ಷಿಸಲು ಅವಳಿಗೆ ಸಾಧ್ಯವಾಗುತ್ತದೆಯೇ?
