epidemic of rape within the U.S. military. The film paints a startling picture of the

extent of the problem – today, a female soldier in combat zones is more likely to be

raped by a fellow soldier than killed by enemy fire. Twenty percent of all active-duty

female servicewomen are sexually assaulted.

Profoundly moving, the film follows the stories of several idealistic young

servicewomen who were raped and then betrayed by their own officers when

they courageously came forward to report. Both a rallying cry for the hundreds of

thousands of men and women who’ve been assaulted and a hopeful road map for

change, THE INVISIBLE WAR is one of those rare films so powerful it has already

helped change military policy.

WRITING THE ANALYSIS

Write a brief discussion (2 ½ — 3 typed, double-spaced pages) exploring your

analysis of the text you have chosen. Do not focus your discussion on your

individual/personal feelings about your choice. Instead, focus on an analysis of the

women’s issues addressed in your text/event. (A film is considered a “text”)

RESPOND TO THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:

(Be specific. Generalizations are not sufficient)

1) What are the Women’s issues addressed in this text/event?

2) What does the film/text/event seem to being saying about the women’s issues

addressed?

3) How did the text/etc. relate to our course material? Once again, BE

SPECIFIC. Use at least two (2) quotes altogether from at least two texts from

any of our course texts (including MS. Magazine).
