Expert Solution

1.Two parts of the film that stood out were the personal stories of the survivors and the portrayal of institutional responsiveness. In the film, survivors of sexual harassment share their experiences, which highlight the psychological and emotional effects of sexual assault imposed on the victims. Moreover, two survivors, Ari and Alexis, explain their ordeal to the university students, hence showing courage, and it also assists other students with similar experiences to come out. The stories shared made an impact because they humanize the issue and emphasize the need for support and justice for the survivors who have been sexually assaulted. On the other hand, the lack of responses from institutions to sexual assault reports is highlighted in the film. The film showcases the prevalence of victim-blaming, institutional cover-ups, and placing reputation over survivor's well-being. The film highlights that the management did not take serious action toward the reports because they received incentives. This situation was appalling and eye-opening because it exposed the failures of the systems in institutions that perpetuate the challenge of sexual assault on campuses.
