“The Hunting Ground”

The 2012 documentary The Invisible War told the story of rampant sexual assault in the military. The filmmakers showed it at colleges around the country as part of their promotional campaign, and found that students and faculty alike would come up to them afterwards and say “that happens here.” Not just assault, but the lack of response from the institutions and, in some cases, active cover-ups. We talk to the filmmakers about the follow-up movie that grew out of that experience.
