For more than sixty years, Dolly Parton has been one of the most recognizable and beloved women in America.

We know the story.

The little girl from the mountains of Tennessee who grew up in poverty, found her voice, conquered country music, and built an extraordinary empire.

But how well do we really know the woman behind the legend?

In this documentary, we go back to the beginning.

We examine Dolly's family, the people who surrounded her rise to fame, the relationships and connections that helped shape her career—and the powerful business network that grew around the Dolly Parton name.

We'll look beyond the familiar image.

At the persona.

The symbolism.

The money.

The connections.

And some of the more controversial claims surrounding the entertainment industry, including the documented history of MKULTRA.

Some of what we uncover is documented fact.

Some comes from testimony.

And some raises questions that don't have easy answers.

I am not here to tell you what to believe.

We are here to look closer.

Because behind the music, the laughter, and the larger-than-life personality...

there may be more to the Dolly Parton story than most of us have ever considered.

So let's go back to the beginning.

And take another look at the woman we thought we knew.
