In Netflix’s latest true crime documentary Girl in the Picture, a woman named Sharon Marshall is found dying by a road, leaves behind a son, a man claiming to be her husband—and a mystery that unfolds like a nightmare. The film tells an incredibly tragic tale and the incredible story of how the mystery was eventually solved twenty-five years later.
Directed and produced by award-winning filmmaker Skye Borgman, Girl in the Picture looks at who Sharon Marshall was, her many different lives and identities, the people whom she touched and the world that she left behind. Releasing on Netflix on July 6th, Girl in the Picture represents a tribute to this young woman and to victims everywhere.
“I’m mostly interested in telling human stories and crime gives us the full spectrum of humanity, from the very best to the very worst of people.” – Skye Borgman
