The Accused

You're out for a good time, and then a violent assault changes everything. But the legal system seems indifferent. Sarah seeks justice, not just for the crime, but for the culture that enabled it. Kaplan’s film unflinchingly stares into the abyss of groupthink depravity. It leaves a viewer to consider the cost of complicity.
