February 25, 2021 New films and TV series about sexual assault are bringing more nuance and diversity to the issue. SHOW TRANSCRIPT Since the height of the #MeToo movement in 2018, Hollywood has come out with several films and TV series about sexual misconduct. With the Golden Globe nominated "Promising Young Woman" and the critically acclaimed "I May Destroy You," experts are looking at how the industry is evolving its portrayals of the issue. Where movies and TV shows more exploited abuse as a plot point or too often perpetuated myths about sexual assault, today, audiences can see broader, more nuanced views. Unconsenting Media, a website that tracks and contextualizes portrayals of sexual misconduct on screen, has more than 5,000 films and TV shows in its database. Its creators hope the project can be a resource for survivors and also a platform to highlight the titles that add nuance to the conversation.
