The film explores experiences of aftercare for survivors of sexual abuse. The screening will be followed by a panel discussion featuring SHaME’s Principal Investigator Professor Emerita Joanna Bourke, filmmaker Sophie MacCorquodale, survivor and contributor of music Maddy Brodrick, award-winning speaker Maisha Sumah, writer and journalist Lucia Osborne-Crowley and founder of London Trans Pride Lucia Blayke.

Taking place during the UN’s 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-based Violence, the evening will be an opportunity to celebrate the survivors’ stories, raise awareness of the links between sexual violence, medicine and psychiatry, think about what we can learn from centring survivors’ perspectives and reflect on the use of film as advocacy from the perspectives of survivors, activists and academics. The screening will be followed by a panel discussion and drinks reception.

The event will be BSL interpreted.
