In this powerful true tale, Eleanor Riese emerges as an unsung heroine fighting for the rights of mental health patients. As a patient herself, she recognized the need for competent individuals to have a voice in their own treatment. Taking matters into her own hands, she spearheads a class action suit seeking to change the system. Enter Colette Hughes, the dedicated lawyer assigned to Eleanor's case, who is driven by a strong sense of justice and empathy for her client. Together, they face legal challenges and societal prejudices as they strive to make a difference in the lives of countless mental health patients. This inspiring film not only highlights the courageous actions taken by Riese but also raises crucial questions about the treatment of mental illness in our society.
