‘Girl in Room 13’ is being added to the 2022 Lifetime Movie Channel lineup. This one will join the network’s “Ripped from the Headlines” event along with the true story of “The Gabby Petito Story.” Get more details about the cast, sypnosis and see photos.
Inspired by actual events, Girl in Room 13 examines the story of Grace (Larissa Dias), who was addicted to opioids after her doctor prescribed them for a sports injury at a very young age.
After a few tries at rehab, Grace is ready to get her life back on track. Under the watchful eye of her mother, Janie (Anne Heche), Grace takes on a job at her family’s restaurant.
But her past comes back to haunt her when her friend coerces her into meeting her former love interest and drug dealer, Richie (Max Montesi). She finds herself imprisoned in a hotel room with no way out. Richie continuously violates Grace, forcing her to take drugs and drink alcohol. This is all done in an attempt to break her down so much that he can sell her into human trafficking. Refusing to give up on her daughter even when her husband and the local police believe Grace has returned to a life of using, Janie starts an all-out hunt to find Grace.
Stopping at nothing, Janie discovers the dark world of human trafficking and the shocking statistics about its widespread victims and its unexpected accomplices.
