ASYLUM
“ASYLUM” pushes the cinematic edge as it tackles a very taboo subject that has finally boiled to the surface of our society: sexual abuse and rape by men in power. “ASYLUM” was created not to shine the spotlight of these acts of unspeakable betrayal but instead to the traumatizing scars seared into the mental landscape of its victim. Being a voice for those who are living within their own emotionally invisible walls of protection that have turned into their prisons.
