Beverly Hills 1969: Frustrated by the absence of her husband Roman Polanski, pregnant Sharon Tate moves into a remote house in the Hollywood Hills with her friends. Haunted by visions of her imminent death, she tries to convince her friends that something terrible is going to happen and that it would be better to leave. But the hope of changing her fate comes to an abrupt end,... With the 'cold-blooded execution' of the heavily pregnant actress Sharon Tate and other victims in Los Angeles, evil was given a face in the USA on the night of August 9, 1969: dark eyes with a penetrating gaze, framed by a wild head of hair. The image of the so-called 'hippie' cult leader Charles Manson has burned itself into the consciousness of his compatriots. For many, the now deceased psychopath embodies the dark side of America.
