TESTIMONIALS FROM OUR PARTNERS
-
We need this film on our campuses. . . It captures the variety and complexity of the student experience without seeming trite. The students in the film are so very human, flawed and worthy of compassion.
Tania Tetlow, President of Fordham University
-
Roleplay captures the complexity of decision-making for students and their struggles to deeply understand what healthy, consensual sex should look like. i believe the film would be beneficial for any college student, administrator, or faculty to see.
Eva Lessinger, Founder of Beyond Harm

Roleplay is more than a snapshot, it is a transformative pedagogical process that--through observing real students confront real situations--engages the audience in the process of meaning making and social change.
Sally J. Kenney, Professor of Political Science Emerita at Tulane University
“One of the best docs I’ve seen so far this year is Katie Mathews’ “Roleplay,” a film that truly surprised me because it does what so few films like this are willing to do: It lets its subjects be messy, unpredictable, and human. . . Mathews has a deceptively subtle voice as a director, providing a supportive platform more than insisting on cinematic results. It leads to a film that’s all the more powerful by virtue of feeling so very real.”
- Brian Tallerico, Managing Director
“More than a documentary about campus sexual violence, Roleplay is a damning window into the ways society reinforces rape culture.”
- Brandon Lewis
“It changed me. Access to these brilliant young minds and what they’ve accomplished got to me on a cellular level. I remembered to be hopeful for a moment.”
- Ashley Smith
