"An upsetting but vital documentary" is how one critic described this two-part series that sees actress Evan Rachel Wood diving deeply into her domestic abuse allegations against shock-rocker Marilyn Manson as she reclaims her story and rises to become an activist working to end the cycle of abuseand fighting to change American legislation. In the documentary, the Westworld actress goes into painful, sobering detail about her time with Manson and the horrors inflicted on her during their four-year relationship, backing up her allegations with evidence and journals from the time. It also shows her grappling with the decision to come out publicly against Manson, which she ultimately would do in an Instagram post in February last year, and meeting with other domestic abuse survivors. Critics have been impacted by the documentary, with one writing, "Wood's courage shines through, and by focusing on Manson's alleged abuse, there's a compelling exploration taking place about power dynamics and relationships in Hollywood."
