Stay tuned after the film finishes for an exclusive interview with THE CASE YOU director Alison Kuhn!

U.S. Premiere! 

During a 2015 casting call, 300-400 young actresses, including some minors, were groped, beaten or abused by both men and women, all while a camera was rolling. These traumatizing experiences resurfaced years later when the footage of the auditions was released as a documentary without their permission. THE CASE YOU follows six of these women as they relive their grief, anger, and disbelief, sharing their experiences for the first time with others who have been through the same ordeal, including its filmmaker Alison Kuhn. Kuhn’s powerful film neutralizes the camera’s predatory eye and instead turns the lens into a liberating channel to express anger and demand justice, in turn serving as a stunning indictment of the entertainment industry’s toxic environment for women.
