Lifetime to tell the story of abused municipality Flint, Michigan
Applying its decades of experience in putting the stories of the abused on screen, Lifetime has decided to tackle the story of Flint, Michigan, the bloody, battered spouse of American towns. In the vein of classic populace-in-peril movies like 15 & Pregnant & Poisoned and Mother, May I Sleep With Drinking Water Contaminated With Dangerously High Quantities Of Lead?, the UnREAL network is planning a “hard-hitting, fact-based” examination of the Flint water crisis, which saw thousands of city residents being served toxic drinking water after being assured by the government that it was safe.
