With deeply emotive testimony from those closest to Angel and vivid use of her personal messages and social media, this film tells Angel’s life story by giving her back her voice. Profoundly moving and unsettlingly relatable, Angel’s story illustrates how quickly victims’ lives can spiral out of control in the hands of an abusive partner.
