The Documentary the Breaks the Silence
In the uplifting and multiple award-winning documentary, Searching for Angela Shelton, filmmaker Angela Shelton drives around the United States surveying other Angela Sheltons. She discovers that 70% of the Angela Sheltons she speaks to are survivors of rape, childhood sexual abuse and/or domestic violence.
A Victim Confronts her Abuser
On her journey the filmmaker meets an Angela Shelton who tracks sexual predators and lives in the same town as the filmmaker’s father, who sexually abused her and her siblings for years. Angela Shelton’s survey of women becomes a journey of self-discovery during which she decides to finally confront her own past and her abusive father – on Father’s Day.
Spiritually Healing
The Angela Sheltons complete the journey by teaching the filmmaker about healing, faith and the power of the human spirit, no matter what your name is.

Dear Angela Shelton. Today I saw you on ricci lake. I myself, am not a victim of rape or molestation. I cannot Imagine the hell you went through. You are an incredible woman! You are so beautiful and such an Inspirtation! I haven’t had the chance to see your movie yet but I am looking for it!
I saw Angela on Ricki Lake this morning and thought I’d check out her web sight. I was moved and decided to make it public that I’m one out of the six. Angela due to financial constraints in my life at this moment I cannot order your materials but I plan to purchase them and try a new healing plan. Thank You!
