This is a great film about consent, an important theme to cover these days.

This is great! There are so many this could extend to demonstrate predatory behavior and the damage it does. I want to see more. Thanks for taking the risk and making this.

This film really changed my views on consent. Thank you guys so much for making it and being brave.

When we support art that challenges assumptions, that honestly makes some people uncomfortable (whether they are in power or aspire to agency and power ) we begin to give voice to new narratives informed by primary sources of experience, not just “idées reçues” (or commonly “received ideas”) of what is right. This film has that new voice.

This is phenomenal! Incredibly well done and so brave. Love that we are seeing the story from the female perspective. It’s moving, thought-provoking and emotional. Proud to be voting!
