In 1911, the women discover Dr. Linda Hazzard who claims to be able to heal anything from kidney disease to paralysis with her unique techniques. The sisters place themselves in the care of Dr. Hazzard, isolated from the outside world in order to fully immerse themselves in the method and achieve perfect health. Unfortunately, only one of the sisters will make it out alive.
