Synopsis

In 1999, Colorado mother Jessica Gonzales endured a parent's worst fear when her three young daughters were killed after their father violated a domestic violence restraining order and abducted them. Grief-stricken, Jessica sued her local police department for failing to properly enforce the order, despite her repeated pleas for assistance that night. Driven to prevent similar tragedies, Jessica takes her case to the US Supreme Court and an international human rights tribunal, advocating for stronger legal protections for domestic violence victims. The film also explores the strain on her relationship with her surviving son, Jessie, as he grapples with the profound loss. Filmed over nine years, *Home Truth* chronicles one family's relentless fight for justice and examines society's response to domestic violence, and the lasting impact of trauma across generations.
