The documentary tells the true story of Victoria Cilliers, who survived a life-threatening fall in 2015 when her parachutes failed to open, and the subsequent murder trial of her husband, Emile Cilliers, who was suspected of attempted murder. The documentary delves into the lead-up to the incident, the discovery of traces of sabotage, and the revelation of a complex web of fraud, debts, and affairs that expose Emile Cilliers' motives for the attempted murder.
