Amy Beckwith

Aibileen Clark is a middle-aged African-American maid who has spent her life raising white children and has recently lost her only son; Minny Jackson is an African-American maid who has often offended her employers despite her family's struggles with money and her desperate need for jobs; and Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan is a young white woman who has recently moved back home after graduating college to find out her childhood maid has mysteriously disappeared. These three stories intertwine to explain how life in Jackson, Mississippi revolves around "the help"; yet they are always kept at a certain distance because of racial lines.

Five adventurous filmmakers set out to make an online interactive movie exploring the nature of evil. But soon they find themselves the subject of their own intentions, as they accidentally uncover the heinous truth that has been secretly hidden in the bowels of Von Diebitsch Manor for generations.
