Dying in Plain Sight is a new Lifetime original movie premiering January 20, 2024. It is inspired by true events and is part of the network’s lineup of new movies in January. Starring Raffa Virago and Nicola Correia-Damude, the movie follows a mother and daughter’s descent into dangerous eating habits. Get details below, including plot, cast, trailer and more.
Overweight high school student Morgan Cruz (Raffa Virago) and her mother Kim (Nicola Correia-Damude) both have secrets that lead to devastating circumstances. When Kim leaves her cheating husband, she becomes focused on “clean eating.” But, what she doesn’t notice is that Morgan has stopped eating altogether. Morgan receives positive validation for her changing body, but begins to experience the terrible side effects of her disorder. Her cries for help fall on deaf ears until she’s hospitalized for life-threatening malnutrition. This leads Kim to realize how her own disordered eating was a terrible influence on her daughter Morgan, pushing her to the brink of death.

Raffa Virago starred in Fellow Travelers and Macy Murdoch. She is a relatively new face in the acting game, with only one additional credit of a short called Powdered Dandelions to her name.
