When Nellie captures the attention of Dr. Nellie's unwillingness to submit to authority results in unspeakable torture at the hands of the head nurse, Matron Grady (Light). The movie delivers an intense and fictionalized account of actual events surrounding Nellie's stay beginning after Nellie has undergone treatment, leaving her with no recollection of how she came to the asylum or her real identity. On a mission to expose the deplorable conditions and mistreatment of patients at the notorious Women's Lunatic Asylum, investigative reporter Nellie Bly (Ricci) feigns mental illness in order to be institutionalized to report from the inside. The Lifetime feature is inspired by Nellie Bly's undercover stay at the impenetrable Women's Lunatic Asylum and stars Golden Globe(R) and Emmy(R) nominated actress Christina Ricci (Monster), two-time Tony award-winner, Golden Globe and Emmy nominee Judith Light (Transparent, The Assassination of Giannni Versace) as Matron Grady and Josh Bowman (Revenge).

When Camile is found stabbed to death and her daughter missing, police launch a search for Esme, only to discover there was nothing wrong with her at all, and she was actually a victim of Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy, forced to believe she was ill by her controlling and abusive mother. The movie features the Mystic River star as abusive mum Camile, who convinced her daughter Esme she was mentally and physically disabled from a young age. Actress Marcia Gay Harden was not a fan of the “scary” physical transformation she underwent for real-life crime drama Love You To Death.
