Summer 1960. Reno, Nevada. The legendary Mapes Hotel became the "headquarters" for the Hollywood film "The Misfits."
A young maid, Pauline, is asked to replace an ill colleague and clean Room 614, the hotel's most luxurious suite. Although she's told there are no guests in the room, a naked, semi-conscious woman appears before her.
It's Mrs. Miller, aka Marilyn Monroe, exhausted by the rigors of filming in the scorching desert, alcohol, antidepressants, and the collapse of her five-year marriage to the famous playwright. A chance encounter will change the young maid's life forever.
This touching story of the unexpected friendship between a Hollywood star and a hotel maid reveals new facets of Marilyn's character, revealing her fragility, vulnerability, humanity—
and her endless loneliness.
