Phoenix Rising
Directed by Amy Berg, Prod Co. Disarming Films
This two-part documentary tells the story of actor Evan Rachel Wood as a survivor of domestic abuse and her pursuit of justice. After helping to pass “The Phoenix Act,” legislation that extends the statute of limitations to give survivors more time to heal, Evan Rachel Wood opens up about her story of abuse at the hands of a rock music “icon.” She stands in solidarity with over survivors, speaks to investigators and prepares to publicly name her abuser for the first time.
