Nobody Joins a Cult
Fresh out of prison aspiring musician Charles Manson has a remarkable capacity to convince young girls to give up their lives and join his growing family. We follow Manson and his new “family” to Los Angeles as he mingles with rock and roll royalty and almost lands a record deal. How did it go so wrong?
