A Distress Call to Mom

A mother's dismissal of her daughter's cries for help leads to tragedy and vengeance.

Vance Group executive Victoria lavishes attention on foster daughter Sienna while dismissing biological daughter Chloe's desperate calls as mere tantrums. Unbeknownst to Victoria, Sienna is her husband's illegitimate child and the architect of a vicious campaign that includes driving steel needles through Chloe's fingertips. Chloe jumps from a building; though she briefly revives in the hospital, Victoria's husband and Sienna remove her oxygen tube, ending her life. Assistant Erik retrieves a USB drive with the full bullying evidence. Confronted with the truth, Victoria becomes an avenger, dismantling Sienna's allies, extracting public confessions, and coordinating with police to prosecute every perpetrator. She then founds the Chloe Anti-Bullying Foundation before taking her own life to reunite with her daughter.
