Danielle Sturk tackles the grim and, sadly, all-too-common reality of sexual violence against teens by boldly asking: Why? In this NFB-produced short documentary, available free of charge on nfb.ca as of today, April 3, the Franco-Manitoban filmmaker talks to young men who share their observations on male culture and society at large, and to young women survivors of different forms of sexual assault. The result is a deeply subjective film that offers a rich array of personal reflections in a bid to spark the dialogue needed to end this violence.
