Where: Bowen Thompson Student Union Theatre

Co-sponsored by Graduate Women’s Caucus,Mariana Grohowski, and Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies

In recognition of Sexual Assault and Awareness Month

From Oscar®- and Emmy®-nominated filmmaker Kirby Dick (This Film Is Not Yet Rated; Twist of Faith) comes The Invisible War, a groundbreaking investigative documentary about one of America's most shameful and best kept secrets: the epidemic of rape within the US military. The film paints a startling picture of the extent of the problem-today, a female soldier in combat zones is more likely to be raped by a fellow soldier than killed by enemy fire. The Department of Defense estimates there were a staggering 19,000 violent sex crimes in the military in 2010. The Invisible War exposes the epidemic, breaking open one of the most under-reported stories of our generation, to the nation and the world.  http://invisiblewarmovie.com/index.cfm
