Run for Your Life (2014 film)

Run for Your Life is a 2014 American Lifetime TV movie and drama film based on a true story. Meredith (Amy Smart) is a battered Canadian woman who flees Canada to escape her abusive husband. She settles in Seattle, but her now-remarried ex-husband finds her. To protect her children, she must choose between killing him herself, hiring someone to kill him, or disappearing with her children and assuming new identities.[1] It is based on Katherine Kotaw's memoir Quicksand: One Woman’s Escape From the Husband Who Stalked Her.[2][3] The movie shows the events and consequences based on both paths in parallel, with frequent scene switching between the paths.
