would you sacrifice to protect someone you love?
In
1965 April Toulane’s life is turned upside down on her fifth
birthday when her mother marries a man she’s known for only two
weeks. The life she’d known is forever changed with the addition of
a stepfather and a five-year-old stepbrother who terrorizes her on a
daily basis. After a family tragedy the young siblings are thrust
into the Hollywood spotlight, surrounded by people whose very
foundation is based on secrets and lies. Struggling to grow up and
find their way in a world where child stars are forever manipulated
and exploited, the siblings form an unbreakable bond vowing to always
protect each other when the adults entrusted to take care of them
fail at every turn. “Tell Me You Love Me” is the story of April
and Auggie Fairbanks, the most sought after faces in show business
throughout the sixties and seventies, maneuvering their way through
the lies and corruption to learn the truth about their parents and
searching for the love and acceptance they so desperately crave.
