    » It was a sobering afternoon of hard truths following the screening of the documentary, The Hunting Ground at SF Cinema at CentralWorld on Saturday. The film tells the alarming story of sexual assault at many of US universities — including some of their most prestigious — as well as these universities’ appalling efforts in trying to keep these attacks hidden. The powerful and shocking film relies on on-camera testimonies of many young women and men who speak on how they were raped in colleges and how those colleges denied them justice.
