Inspired by real events of mothers who fight back when their teenage daughters are trafficked online, the film is currently being filmed.
According to Lifetime’s official description, Dana’s 16-year-old daughter Alicia (Faith Wright) sneaks out of the house to attend a party and doesn’t come home. After nearly a year of searching for her missing daughter, her mother’s intuition leads Dana into the salacious world of online escort ads where, to her horror, she finds Alicia for sale. Dana and Alicia’s father, Curtis (Roger Cross), attempts to “redeem their daughter” in an effort to save her from the trafficker who kidnapped the teenager. Ariana Madix plays Karen, a police officer who helps investigate the case and has a personal connection to the story.
The film marks Good’s final project with Lifetime after starring in and producing Death saved my life And Love on the 10th date.
Good is replaced by The Gersh Agency, Atlas Artists, The Initiative Group and Yorn, Levine, Barnes, Krintzman, Rubenstein, Kohner, Endlich & Gellman.
Redeem my daughter is produced by Front Street Pictures for distribution by Lifetime. Charles Cooper serves as producer. Executive producers are Orly Adelson, Allen Lewis and Meagan Good, with James Jope serving as co-executive producer. Troy Scott is directing from a screenplay written by Barbara Marshall.
A release date will be announced later. The film is part of Lifetime’s ongoing “Stop Violence Against Women” campaign.
