I mean, it's a Lifetime movie, so my expectations were pretty low to begin with, but I do love stories based on real events.
In the first few seconds, I was hooked. By the climax, I was ready to scream at the screen, "WHY ARE YOU GOING BACK?!"
The part that really got me, though, was the ending, with the phrase about "If you or anyone you know has been a victim of sexual assault in the Amish community, go to these websites." How??? How are they going to see the movie, much less have access to the websites? I get religious freedom, but children and young people need to be protected. An Amish person in Rumspringa MIGHT come across this story, but we all know it's a closed community. As a survivor of sexual assault, I can tell you that a young woman who has been blamed for her assault and has no access to the outside world will just deal with it.
Good movie, but we need to do better as humans. If you see someone who seems like they aren't okay, dig a little deeper and don't assume they have the same resources we have. Closed communities aren't immune to crime, they just cover it better because victims don't know they've been victimized, or they trust the church to protect them.
