Mea Culpa (2024): Plot, Cast, Release Date and Netflix Details

Mea Culpa is a 2024 U.S. thriller about criminal defense attorney Mea Harper, who takes on the murder case of artist Zyair Malloy. The film premiered on Netflix on February 23, 2024. Its official synopsis keeps the central question open: the truth may not be as clear as the case first appears.

What is Mea Culpa about?

Mea Harper is a criminal defense attorney who agrees to represent Zyair Malloy, an artist accused of murder. As she works through the case, questions of guilt, attraction, family ties and professional duty complicate her judgment. Netflix’s synopsis describes a story in which appearances may be misleading, so the premise is best approached without assuming the accusation tells the whole story.
