    Overview:
    The story: When Marie McCrea powers-up a device manufactured by Continental Products, something goes very wrong. In one explosive moment, the young woman's face and hands are hideously disfigured. Ms. McCrea sues, claiming design defects and negligent manufacture. Discovery begins. Members of the team that created the product unearth documents written and saved during development. As they re-trace their steps, they face agonizing "might-have-beens." In court, they are confronted by Marie herself on the witness stand, her features masked beneath a surgical hood…and they confront ambiguities in their record for prioritizing product safety. "The best presentation of a product liability lawsuit ever filmed," this updated Commonwealth Classic shows the consequences of failing to think defensively and pro-actively at every stage of a product's design, testing, manufacture, and marketing.
