Show Notes
This film's title references from the infamous Brock Turner case - the Stanford University student who raped and assaulted an unconscious female student behind a dumpster at a fraternity party. Much was made at the time of Turner's promising future as a swimmer. As his father said in a much publicized court letter, why should his son's life be "deeply altered" for "20 minutes of action"?
This film poses the question: Why are we willing to sacrifice promising young women for promising young men?
Theme Music "A Movie I'd Like to See" by Al Harley.
