The Hunting Ground (2015)
Freaking Amazing Film!
This film is an in-depth look at the state of sexual assault reporting and rape culture on college and university campuses around the U.S. The filmmakers post multiple sources throughout the film, and back up the claims made with a wide variety of sources. The widespread cover-ups of sexual assault and rape on college campuses that has been so well known by so many people who experience or study it, is finally exposed in this hard-hitting documentary. The Hunting Ground was actually inspired by the filmmakers discussions with college students when they were screening their other film The Invisible War. Apparently students came up to them after film screenings on campuses and told the filmmakers that they had experienced the same kind of silencing and inaction around campus sexual assaults and rapes. It's definitely a must watch for anyone interested in gender equality and addressing sexual violence on higher education campuses. We need to use this film as a catalyst for real change!
