"The Invisible War" is a groundbreaking investigative documentary about one of our country's most shameful and best kept secrets: the epidemic of rape within our US military. Today, a female soldier in Iraq and Afghanistan is more likely to be raped by a fellow soldier than killed by enemy fire with the number of assaults in the last decade alone in the hundreds of thousands.

Hear the women's emotional stories and learn about the systemic cover ups and the struggle for justice.

A post-film discussion will follow this AADL screening, led by SafeHouse Center.
