Plot
Based on fact reals, the drama of Antonio Campos tells the true history of news reporter who lives in Florida and, in 1974, decides to take her own life on air. Christine (Rebecca Hall) has always been the smartest worker that could have been in the room at a small town news station, relentless in her pursuit of an on air position. However, she always has to face his boss, starring by Tracy Letts, who pushes for juicier stories that will drive up ratings. Her news about the social justice doesn't interest. Christine is full of doubts, and her situation is worst because of the complicated home life that she has. Everything change when she begins to rise with her co-worker (Michael C. Hall), that will become, finally, in an unrequited love. Disillusioned, the life of Christine will be darker in this point and will decide take her own life on air.
