Lifetime's new thriller movie, An Amish Sin, will premiere on the channel on Saturday, October 29, 2022. The film focuses on the Amish community and revolves around a teenage girl who's forced to get married to her abuser.
Here's the official synopsis of the movie, as per Lifetime:
''The Amish world has always fascinated outsiders with its insular community and 18th century lifestyle that shuns the temptations of modernity. But all is not as wholesome as it seems. Inspired by true stories, Amish Sin follows Rachel, an Amish teen who refuses to obey her parent’s command that she marry the man who abused her as a child.''
The description further reads:
''When she attempts to run away, she is caught and sent to a “rehab” for Amish girls who don’t follow the rules. Managing to escape from the facility, she makes her way to a neighboring city where she has to learn to live–and find her place–in our world.''
In key roles, the film features Dylan Ratzlaff, Kellie Martin, and many others.
