Desmond has a secret he cannot share with anyone. His grades are slipping, rumors are swirling and he feels powerless, especially when he sees his sister being hurt too. With the support of his father and a new friend, Desmond is able to tell his story of being sexually assaulted and end the cycle of abuse. Desmond regains his power when he uses his voice. • If you or someone close to you needs support dealing with sexual abuse, please reach out: https://www.rainn.org/ 800-656-hope • Lesson Plan: • http://bit.ly/speechlesslp • Speechless was written by Roxanne Lasker-Hall when she was a junior at the Cleveland School of the Arts, in Cleveland, OH and directed by Karyn Kusama (Girlfight and Jennifer’s Body). • For 15 years, Scenarios has asked teens to share their realities, and they have responded with a raw and revealing constellation of voices of what it means to be a teenager today. Scenarios uses the incredible power of storytelling and filmmaking to create curricula the gives students the chance to speak out, be heard and lead on the issues that really matter to not only themselves but their communities. We start by bringing our REAL DEAL curriculum and films into middle school and high school classrooms. The curriculum engages students to think critically and creatively about the issues they face. And we say: Now Tell Us Your Story! • Check out our FIlm Lover's Playlist: http://bit.ly/1f2gdlpv • Subscribe to SCENARIOS: http://bit.ly/1F42vDi • Like us on FACEBOOK: http://on.fb.me/1GsxgGL • Follow us on TWITTER: http://bit.ly/1AntxJg • Check out our FILM PAGE!: http://bit.ly/susafilms
