In June 1977, two adventurous Yale University students, Terri Jentz and Avra Goldman, embarked on an ambitious journey: biking the 4,200-mile TransAmerica Bike Trail across the diverse landscapes of America.
Their journey took a horrific turn at Cline Falls State Park, Oregon. After a grueling day of cycling, they settled in for the night, unaware of the nightmare that awaited them. A vehicle crashed into their tent, jolting them awake. What followed was a brutal attack that left Avra severely injured and Terri fighting for her life.
The ensuing investigation revealed a shocking story of violence and injustice. This documentary delves into the details of the attack, its aftermath, and the ongoing fight for justice for Terri and Avra.
