Escaping the Madhouse: The Nellie Bly Story

An intrepid investigative journalist, Nellie Bly, sets out to reveal the deplorable conditions and mistreatment endured by patients at the infamous Women’s Lunatic Asylum by pretending to suffer from mental illness to gain admission and report from within. The film chronicles real-life events centered on Nellie’s stay, beginning after her treatment, and leaves her with no memory of how she arrived at the asylum or of her true identity.
