Judy Malinowski was a young mother of two daughters in 2015 when her boyfriend poured gasoline over her at a gas station and set her on fire. She suffered burns to 95 percent of her body.

She was rushed to the hospital and doctors predicted she'd die within a few hours. Judy lived for two years and during that time, was able to tell her story on a video that was shown in court during her attacker's murder trial.

The documentary chronicles Judy's fate, and the legal fight to get justice for her in a series of interviews with her loved ones. It also pays tribute to Judy by highlighting the legislation, known as Judy's Law, which was introduced in Ohio in 2017, to protect other people affected by domestic violence.
