Throughout the raw, powerful documentary, the dignity and perspectives of survivors are prioritized.
This event is free and open to the public. The film will be followed by a panel discussion and Q & A session.

- Janet M. McFarland, RN, BSN, CEN, SANE-A?Clinician/ Forensic Coordinator, Emergency Department?Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC
- Bryan Sellers, Detective, Sexual Assault and Family Crisis Unit, City of Pittsburgh
