The film, set to premiere this summer and based on a true story, follows Tanya Kach, who was groomed by the security guard at her middle school and held captive in his home for ten years. Following the movie Lifetime will air the special, <strong><em>Beyond the Headlines: The Tanya Kach Story with Elizabeth Smart<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Tanya Kach (Olsen) was fourteen and at risk, struggling with an unhappy home life and the victim of bullying at her new school. Feeling isolated and lonely, she is befriended by Tom Hose (Baker), the school&#8217;s security guard, who manages to lure Tanya to his home, where he held her captive and sexually abused her for over a decade. Convinced he had Tanya brainwashed and that she would never attempt escape, Tom eventually allows her to take on a part-time job. Out from under Tom&#8217;s watchful eye, Tanya finally finds the courage to take a dangerous step toward freedom.<\/p><div id=\"morty-1867304012\" class=\"morty-content\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>Kidnapping survivor and advocate Elizabeth Smart continues her relationship with Lifetime after executive producing the films <em>Abducted by My Teacher: The Elizabeth Thomas Story<\/em>, <em>The Girl Who Escaped: The Kara Robinson Story<\/em> and <em>I Am Elizabeth Smart<\/em>, as well as the doc specials<em> Elizabeth Smart: Finding Justice<\/em> and <em>Smart Justice: The Jayme Closs Case<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Immediately following the movie&#8217;s premiere, Lifetime will debut <em>Beyond the Headlines: The Tanya Kach Story with Elizabeth Smart<\/em>.
