| Summary: | Ada, just 19 years old, went to the house of a young man she knew. She didn't fight back, and it all happened very quickly, but the trauma remains. With humility and frankness, the powerful documentary That Which Does Not Kill tackles the delicate and intimate matter of rape. Filmmaker Alexe Poukine's approach is novel: she has different people read Ada's account. It is an appropriation that creates a trusted space for speaking out, and other heartbreaking stories soon emerge. By exploring the diversity of experiences and perspectives, the film examines stubborn prejudices without sanctimony or condescension, provoking the sort of collective introspection - and discussion - the #MeToo movement has necessitated. |
