Roll Red Roll

In the harrowing documentary "Roll Red Roll", director Nancy Schwartzman sheds light on a devastating tragedy that exposed a culture of complicity in Steubenville, Ohio, where a young woman was brutally raped by members of the local high school football team. Through Alexandria Goddard's investigation and documentation, the film exposes the roles that peer pressure, denial, sports machismo, and social media played in perpetuating a toxic environment that enabled the crime. A tough but essential watch, "Roll Red Roll" is a piercingly relevant and disturbing portrayal of rape culture that remains painfully timely seven years after the initial tragedy.
