About this title

Review

Despite being a work of fiction, this story aims for a nonfiction feel, with a strong moral as its guiding light . . . It is a reminder that domestic assault and sexual violence are everywhere, in every community, and that turning a blind eye only serves to further traumatize victims and embolden abusers. - Foreword Reviews --Foreword Reviews

Overall, the screenplay tackles the severity of sexual assault in an unflinching way, and it does a particularly good job of showing how quickly some men will try to laugh off or cover up terrible crimes of their peers... Kirkus Reviews --Kirkus Reviews
