The True Story of America's First Female Serial Killer

In this documentary, filmmaker Nick Broomfield follows the saga of Aileen Wuornos, a prostitute who has been accused of committing a brutal series of murders. Broomfield conducts interviews with Wuornos herself, and his crew films her trial as well as her interactions with religious fanatic Arlene Pralle, who gives Wuornos dubious advice and legally adopts her. The cameras also roll as the accused's attorney ignores the case at hand to negotiate a deal to sell his client's story.

Directed by Nick Broomfield

Starring Aileen Wuornos, Nick Broomfield, Arlene Pralle, Tyria Moore, Mike Reynolds, Steve Glazer, Merle Cannonball, Jesse 'The Human Bomb' Aviles
