1 in 3 at OCADVSA Conference!!!
Not even a week after the screening at deadCENTER, 1 in 3 had another screening in Tulsa for the Oklahoma Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Conference. The screening took place on Wednesday, June 16th at 5pm. I was extremely nervous about this screening, because the audience would be made up of domestic violence and sexual assault professionals. So, it was kind of like a moment of truth if you will.
There was a Q & A before the screening of the film, because the audience was eager to know more about the project. For most, it was the first time that any of them had heard of 1 in 3. So, one of the first questions had to deal with whether or not it was a documentary. We’ve gotten that question ALOT! I think, because of the subject matter many people are expecting to see a documentary OR something like the Jennifer Lopez film “Enough”. 1 in 3 is neither and is best described in a review written by Sunrise Tippeconnie on The Candler Blog, “1 in 3 is not so much a depiction of Lifetime–melodrama nor the exploitive horrors that are common in domestic abuse thrillers, but a more realistic drafting of the possibilities of subtle daily domestic violence.”
