Move over, Sister Wives! The 13th Wife: Escaping Polygamy is the “ripped from the headlines” crazy true story of Rena Chynoweth (Felicity Huffman), who was forced to become the thirteenth wife of Ervil LeBaron (Eric Johnson), the head of a fundamentalist Mormon sect, when she was just 16. (Olga Petsa plays young Rena).

After Ervil orders her to gun down a rival churchman, she’s tried and acquitted, and eventually leaves the oppressive sect and begins helping other women escape polygamy. A must-see, because can we ever get enough movies about polygamist cults? The second part of this compelling true story airs June 1.
