Netflix Original Girl in the Picture is once-in-a-lifetime story of horror

Girl in the Picture is the unflinching story of exploitation and vices described in 102 minutes. The horrors of Suzanne Sevakis’s life inspired a journalist, Matt Birkbeck, to start investigating this case in 2002. As Matt takes every step toward Tonya Hughes’ case, it is revealed this is a false name. Meanwhile, her real identity has been hidden since her childhood when Franklin abducted her. And they both have lived under different aliases all these years.

Moreover, the man (Clarence Hughes) who claimed to be her husband was actually her father. He abused Suzanne all these years and later used her as a source of income. She had to work in an exotic dancing bar to provide for her first kid Michael. Following a life of abuse and dread for 20 years, she finally sank into a forever silence. However, Matt came like an angel, who discovered her suffocating life and death to the world.
