About this movie

What does it mean to tell somebody else's story? In this ingenious blend of documentary and psychological thriller, Robert Greene follows actress Kate Lyn Sheil through her creative process as she prepares for her next, tragic role: Christine Chubbuck, a Florida newscaster who committed suicide live on-air in 1974. As Kate investigates (and ultimately becomes obsessed with) Chubbuck's story, she discovers that little is actually known about the real woman (even though her story was the inspiration for the classic Hollywood film Network). 2016 Suncoast Digest Films, Dogwoof.
