From victim to survivor
Description
Surviving a sexual assault involves not only physical survival but the slow restoration of emotional and spiritual wellness. This film focuses on three survivors, two women and a man, who poignantly and openly share their experience and its aftermath. Julia was assaulted in her home by a stranger; Carol was assaulted by a family member when she was ten; and Randy, an ex-Marine, was raped in a public restroom. The purpose of From Victim to Survivor is to educate the public on this sensitive subject. Most importantly, it encourages present and future victims of sexual assault to come forward and receive the help and support they desperately need.
