A drifter (Gary Cooper) is hired to pose as a fictional man threatening suicide in protest of society’s problems. What begins as a publicity stunt turns into a powerful grassroots movement that challenges corruption and inspires hope.
In this thriller, psychiatrist Dr. Cross kills his wife and expects to get away with murder, until he discovers that the slaying was observed by a next-door neighbor, Janet Stewart. As Janet attempts to convince her husband of the doctor's dastardly deed, Cross shows up to advise him that Janet is in dire need of some in-depth counseling.
