Plot

At the tender age of 15, Alex, a girl who courageously embraced her homosexuality, found her world upended. Her devout Mormon parents, paralyzed by fear for their daughter's soul, ripped her away from the comfort of her Southern California home and thrust her into a horrifying existence within a Utah-based conversion therapy house. Alex was held captive for eight grueling months, subjected to extreme punishments and brutal beatings, all in an ill-conceived attempt to cure her of her homosexuality. Understanding that survival meant playing by their rules, Alex eventually earned the right to attend school. It was there that she crossed paths with an empathetic boy, the president of the school's gay-straight alliance. This unlikely friendship offered a lifeline, connecting Alex with a determined attorney. Together, they dared to devise a daring escape plan, offering Alex a glimmer of hope in her darkest hours. This is the riveting tale of Trapped: The Alex Cooper Story, a film that explores the depths of courage in the face of unspeakable adversity.
