Individuals are usually really angry after seeing it, because they either don't know that this is happening or have thought that it wasn't as widespread as it is.

Where can someone watch your documentary?

It will be shown in collaboration with our partners around the country - the first of those screenings are now listed on our web site on the screenings page and on the home page . We are very excited to be working with our four national and many local partners.

What are you hoping for with the film?
