Krieg der Bestatter (2023)
Als Jeremiah O'Keefe, Inhaber eines traditionsreichen Bestattungsunternehmens in Biloxi, Mississippi, von einem kanadischen Großkonzern, der ebenfalls auf Beerdigungen spezialisiert ist, über den Tisch gezogen werden soll, heuert er den wortgewandten Anwalt Willie E. Gary an. Gary soll die strittigen Vertragsangelegenheiten klären und gerät dabei an Mame Downes, die Anwältin der Gegenseite, die ihm in vielerlei Hinsicht ebenbürtig ist. Während des Prozesses wird dann klar, dass es bei diesem Fall um viel mehr geht, als bloß um unlautere Geschäfte, denn auch Alltagsrassismus und die Ausbeutung der unteren Klassen hängen mit den Ereignissen, die vor Gericht aufgerollt werden, unmittelbar zusammen.
