A constant runaway is given over to the care of the state and finds herself in a remand centre for girls. She is soon caught between the uncaring bureaucracy, the sometimes brutal treatment from her peers and her own abusive family, and only one care worker sees her potential to rise above her tragic circumstances.
After the edited re-airings in the 1980s, the movie disappeared from circulation completely. In 2004, VCI Entertainment released Born Innocent on DVD with the rape scene intact, the first time it has been seen by the general public in thirty years.
'Linda Blair' was 14 when this TV-movie was made and 15 when it was released. However, the other girls at the reform school in the film were much older than the ages they portrayed. Two others who are credited were in their mid-20's when this was filmed, as Nora Heflin and Tina Andrews were 24 and 23 respectively, when this was made, while Janit Baldwin was 18 or 19. All of these girls were older than Mitch Vogel, who was supposedly portraying her 20 year old brother (he was actually 18 at the time).
No more mirrors!
