Absolutely amazing, a must-see for everyone, I think. Despite the subject, the film manages to be almost hopeful, yet it doesn't shy away from the details or romanticize the recovery. The attitudes of the people followed are inspiring. It didn't leave me anxious, as many documentaries, articles and books about rape have. Overall one of the best documentaries I've seen, would be very suitable to show, for example, in a high-school health class.

I will state this as simply and straightforward as I possibly can: this documentary is incredibly important. Everyone should see this. Just a glimpse into the lives of female sexual assault survivors. I can only hope this has shed some light onto our male counterparts. Many do not realize how women alter their everyday lives for fear of being assaulted. I urge everyone to watch this.

It was a bit slow, a bit too long and it jumped a bit illogically from one bigger aspect or story to another, but in overall it was a good documentary. It showed us real stories, real cases and real attempts to help the victims and to help prevent that there will be further victims. I was happy to see how many helpful people are out there - however, I couldn't help myself from cursing and shaking my head when they showed clips of lying people or people who thought all of this is a joke or alright.
