Plot Summary

Maya (Rosario Dawson) is like many other college coeds, book smart yet shy, curious about sex, yet scared to let herself go. One night she meets Jared (played by Chad Faust). When their courtship turns from romantic to horrific in a single violent act, Maya's world is ripped inside-out. Shutting out everyone in her life, Maya loses herself to a dark throbbing underworld of drugs and sexual experimentation. Lured by club DJ Adrian (Marcus Patrick), she awakens to a cold and vicious new strength, determined to seek revenge. But will Maya's downward spiral consume and destroy her - or will she be saved by its power?

Fresh: [Dramatizes] the experience and the psychological aftermath of rape with a vividness I've never seen in an American film. – Matt Zoller Seitz, New York Times, Jul 16, 2008

Rotten: [Rosario Dawson] could have provided a 100-minute closeup and revealed more about human nature and anguish than all of Descent. – John Anderson, Variety, Jul 7, 2010

Rotten: It's indie provocation trapped between shock and blah. – Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times, Sep 20, 2007

Rotten: You'll want to avert your eyes from this intense and intensely unpleasant drama about rape and revenge. – Stephen Farber, Hollywood Reporter, Jun 24, 2010

(Sigh)....

I love Rosario Dawso and this movie made me love her even more. It's a very good movie.

Sweet revenge!!!!!

This movie is crazy bruh Rosario got the ultimate payback!!!!!!!

Rosario Dawson is amazing

First it should be noted that this is not the version released in theaters (that one was NC-17) but I can't tell you exactly what they cut to make this one R.

Rosario Dawson did an outstanding job in this small movie not many people have heard of. The subject matter is not for the faint of heart though.
