Sentenced to capital punishment for killing seven men, Aileen Wuornos agrees to give a frank interview to a documentary filmmaker.
She talks about the secrets of her past, recalling her life since the mid-1970s. Aileen was young then, but was already involved in prostitution and had occasional outbursts of aggression.
By chance she befriended a wealthy girl and easily seduced her 69-year-old father, the head of a Florida yacht club. Their marriage was short – only nine weeks. It could have been a great chance for Aileen to start a new life, but instead it turned out to be a push into the abyss.
