The survey of women in America says that 70% have been victims of violence.

In the uplifting and multi-award-winning documentary, filmmaker Angela Shelton drives around the United States surveying other Angela Sheltons. She discovers that 24 out of the 40 Angela Sheltons she speaks to are survivors of rape, childhood sexual abuse, and/or domestic violence (the number jumped to 28 out of 40 when 4 more Angelas broke their silence after the movie was completed).

Angela Shelton's survey of women becomes a journey of self-discovery during which she decides to finally confront her own past and her abusive father on Father's Day. The Angela Shelton's complete the journey by teaching the filmmaker about healing, faith, and the power of the human spirit, no matter what your name is.
