The Black Dahlia murder remains unsolved 78 years later, and Los Angeles has never stopped dreaming about her.

Elizabeth Short's story is the story of Hollywood itself. A city that projects it's dark fantasies onto the female body like film on screen, and devours what it gazes upon. A place where beauty and brutality are bound together.

We follow the threads that connect the Black Dahlia murder of 1947, to Joan Didion's Helter Skelter 1960s on Franklin Avenue, and the paranoid circle that surrounded it. Welcome to Episode 1 : The Body In The Lot.
