In 1966 Baltimore, after the disappearance of a young girl on Thanksgiving, the lives of two women change forever. In an attempt to shed her secret past, Jewish housewife Maddie Schwartz (Portman) embarks on a new career as an investigative journalist. Cleo Johnson (Moses Ingram) struggles to provide for her family while navigating the political underbelly of Black Baltimore. After Cleo’s puzzling death, Maddie becomes obsessed with catching the killer. However, a chasm opens that puts everyone around them in danger, per Apple TV+’s synopsis.
“Your writing dreams ruined your life,” Johnson says in the trailer. “Now, you wanted those same dreams to rewrite it. But why did you need to drag my dead body into it?”
