Los Angeles, 1947. As the Cold War plunges America into a climate of paranoia, a witch hunt begins. The focus tightens on the Hollywood industry, which is suspected of hiding communists who use movies to pervert minds to the cause. Among them is the prolific star screenwriter Donald Trumbo (*Roman Holiday*, *Spartacus*). Trumbo is jailed, blacklisted and becomes a pariah. But he continues to work in secret, fighting against the government’s anti-communist crusade, spurred on by Senator Joe McCarthy.
