A Beautiful Suicide is exists in 1992 on a cross-country drive with sisters Ruth, a 12 year old aspiring actress and Mara, an 18 year old punk loner (both played by adult women). They're running away to New York City, to escape the pain of home. What follows is a treacherous, enlightening journey to Manhattan, guided by the silent specter of Evelyn McHale who, in 1947, leapt from the 86th floor of the Empire State Building and whose peaceful death pose TIME Magazine called, “The Most Beautiful Suicide.”
