The Invisible War

The Invisible War reveals the secretive and harrowing story of the sexual assault epidemic within the US military. Lauded by journalists, lawmakers, and advocates for its influence on government policy, this award-winning documentary exposes the previously underreported culture of sexual assault and harassment within the armed forces.

The Invisible War features interviews with US military veterans who describe the circumstances surrounding their sexual assaults. Their stories reveal common themes, including the lack of an impartial justice system, the absence of adequate physical and emotional care, reprisals against victims rather than perpetrators, the forced expulsion of victims from military service, and the unhindered advancement of perpetrators’ careers. The film also includes footage, often recorded by the veterans themselves, depicting their lives and personal struggles in the aftermath of their assaults.
