The year is 1970 and while the outside world is drastically changing, in a Baltimore psychiatric institution a young Greenlandic woman has come forward with allegations of abuse.

But fellow patient Bridgette Leven knows better… 138 Arlington recounts the story of two courageous women who begin as victims and who, through their determination and audacity, become survivors.
