Plot

After a man kills two members of his Yukon gold-prospecting group, the remaining couple puts him on trial in a remote cabin.

Sinekatalog’s take

Lev Kuleshov's silent drama, Po zakonu, from Jack London, is tense and claustrophobic, a three-person chamber piece in the snow.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
