    • Synopsis
    • One afternoon on September 1997, loud knocks drummed the front door of a Jerusalemite taxi driver named Moshe Kastel.
      The policemen told him he was arrested for murdering his best friend and a passerby.
      "Citizen K." documents the efforts to reopen the case and find out the truth behind the troubling questions hanging over the affair.
      Over the course of the series' detective journey, the viewers come to realize that the court's firm conclusions are far from being established what shed light on the gaps between the factual and the legal truths.
