Justice Is Done (French: Justice est faite) is a 1950 French drama film directed by André Cayatte. It tackles the subject of euthanasia by depicting a court case in which a woman is tried for killing her terminally ill employer at his request. It won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival. It was shot at the Saint-Maurice Studios in Paris and on location around Versailles, Marly-le-Roi, Hérouville and Arronville. The film's sets were designed by the art director Jacques Colombier.
Elsa Lundenstein is accused of having murdered her lover. The jury discusses the case vividly. All members are somehow prejudiced because of personal life experience and subsequently each member reads something different into the presented facts.
Justice Is Done is the first film to win two out of three highest prizes from the "Big Three" major international film festivals, including the Golden Bear and the Golden Lion. The second, and so far only other film, is The Wages of Fear.[citation needed]
