Over-the-Rhine 

Directed by Caroline Stine

Cast: Mia Vera, Sarah Hicks, Kellyn Dolezal, Kelsey Schwarber, Shelby Saylor, Lydia Epping & Brandi Botkin

CHARLIE’S GIRLS gives the stories of the women of the Manson Family, forms some understanding of the motivation behind the infamous murders, and examines the terrifying control held over the women by Charles Manson.

Or even ourselves. 60 minutes.
