Amerika in den 30er-Jahren. Die Geschwister Scout und Jem Finch wachsen in einer äußerlich idyllischen Welt heran: im Örtchen Maycomb, Alabama, inmitten weißer Villen und tropischer Bäume. Erzogen von ihrem Vater Atticus, einem menschenfreundlichen Anwalt. Doch die Idylle trügt, durch die alte Gesellschaft des Südens ziehen sich tiefe Risse: zwischen Schwarz und Weiß, zwischen Arm und Reich. Als Scouts Vater die Verteidigung eines schwarzen Landarbeiters übernimmt, der angeblich ein weißes Mädchen vergewaltigt hat, erfährt die Achtjährige staunend, dass die Welt viel komplizierter ist, als sie angenommen hat. Tapfer versucht sie, die demokratischen Gerechtigkeitsideale ihres Vaters gegen alle Anfechtungen hochzuhalten, und gerät selbst in Gefahr ... Unvermindert aktuell: ein Plädoyer für die Gleichheit aller Menschen. Der zeitlose Klassiker über Rassismus und Heldenmut.
