Raw Deal: A Question of Consent (2001)
A powerful documentary on rape and the US criminal justice system
5 February 2002 - 2 out of 6 users found this review helpful.
This is a very thought provoking film. It disturbs the idea that the justice system can simply discover the truth of what happened and shows clearly how instead the system constructs the truth of what happened. By juxtaposing video footage of a rape with extracts from interviews with the survivor and a friend of the attacker a complex picture emerges that forced me to rethink 'consent'.
I think it is important to see this film but it is very hard to watch. You are literally seeing someone being raped.
