Today, a female soldier in Iraq or Afghanistan is more likely to be raped by a fellow soldier than killed by enemy fire. A groundbreaking investigative documentary about one of our country's most shameful and best-kept secrets "The Invisible War" reveals the epidemic of rape within the U.S. military.
Tracing the powerfully emotional stories of several young veterans - all survivors of sexual assault, "The Invisible War" is a film about the military's systemic cover-up of sex crimes. Featuring interviews with high-ranking military officials and members of Congress, the film reveals the perfect storm of conditions that perpetuate rape and protect perpetrators across the armed services. Meticulously researched, the film exposes the humiliating choice many soldiers are forced to make between speaking up and serving their country.
