"The Girl from Plainville" is a five-part television miniseries based on the true story of Michelle Carter, a teenager from Plainville, Massachusetts. The series follows the events leading up to the death of Conrad Roy, Michelle's boyfriend, who died by suicide in 2014. Michelle was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter for encouraging Conrad to take his own life through text messages and was sentenced to 15 months in jail.
The series explores Michelle's complex relationship with Conrad and the mental health issues that both of them were facing at the time. It also delves into the legal implications of the case and the impact of social media on modern-day communication.
The miniseries stars Elle Fanning as Michelle Carter and is based on the Esquire article "The Girl from Plainville" by Jesse Barron. The series premiered on Hulu in August 2020 and received critical acclaim for its sensitive portrayal of a difficult and controversial case.
