Pe 22 noiembrie 1963, lumea și-a ținut respirația: John F. Kennedy, cel mai tânăr președinte ales în funcție în Statele Unite, a fost împușcat. În cel mai scurt timp, FBI-ul prezintă un făptuitor, singuraticul Lee Harvey Oswald. Două zile mai târziu este împușcat mort de Jack Ruby. Comisia Warren însărcinată cu investigarea cazului concluzionează că Oswald a fost singurul făptuitor. Procurorul Jim Garrison se îndoiește de teorie și pornește împreună cu echipa sa să rezolve el însuși puzzle-ul crimei. În ciuda faptului că martorii mor ca muștele în circumstanțe ciudate, Garrison descoperă o conspirație care implică CIA, FBI, mafia și președintele Johnson deopotrivă.
Filmul este inspirat din articolul ziaristului Wil Haygood “A Butler Well Served by This Election”, apărut în Washington Post, despre viața fostului majordom al Casei Albe Eugene Allen. Prin ochii lui Eugene Allen și ai familiei sale, filmul urmărește istoria Statelor Unite, trecând în revistă evenimente relevante precum mișcarea pentru obținerea drepturilor civile de către populația de culoare, asasinarea lui Martin Luther King și a lui John F. Kennedy, acțiunile protestatare ale Panterelor Negre, Războiul din Vietnam și Scandalul Watergate. Ca majordom la Casa Albă, Cecil trăiește toate aceste evenimente atât din interior, cât și din exterior, confruntat cu conflictele din propria familie. Povestea lui Cecil este, în același timp, extraordinară, dar și universală, înfățișând modul în care fiecare generație încearcă să se definească și să trăiască visul american.
