Director Statement

Rape is an ever-present plague in our society and most of the time, the victims are not heard because they are afraid, ashamed and in most cases doubted. In many instances of rape, the victim feels powerless because the person who committed the act is someone they know and respected, so, they don't know how to come out, or who to trust with such information. As such, many rapists go unpunished while the victims self-destruct. IN-LAW is aimed at making the victims and those around them know it is not okay to stay silent. Exposing the predators make it easy for the law to take action and seek help is very important for their mental health.
