On May 1, 2005, Wendy Maldonado, an Oregon mother of four, called 911 in hysterics. I just killed my husband, she confessed. When the operator asked how long her husband had abused her, Maldonado replied, Every f---ing day of my life. Wendy, along with her eldest son Randy, pleaded guilty to manslaughter. This film follows Wendy and her family in the few days before she begins a 10-year prison sentence for the crime. Alternately shocking and heartbreaking, the film tells the story of one womans fateful decision to make a new life for herself and her children at all costs, even her own freedom.
