Silence is not consent.
So true.
This was so intense, and the reality is that relationships can have their highs and lows but sometimes it's always at a high. Great acting.
Thanks for watching!
Amazing short, well written and acted. A story that needs to be told. The story of manipulation and abuse is one so many of us have experienced. Thank you for being courageous to tell this story
Thank you so much!
Unfortunately, situations like this happens more than we can admit to ourselves.
Good acting!
Thanks for watching!
Whether she said out right no or she didnt feel like it just wanted to go to bed is the same as knock it off and stop. Pushing the if you love me you will let me do this to you is manipulative rape. You dont push someone's feelings over so to have sex with them. The girlfriend is a dominant over a more submissive gf who let's her get by with it. The minute she slapped her across the face would have been the end of the relationship. She didnt want to acknowledge the hurt or anger she caused so popped her. The apology was insensitive and insincere so sounds like she will most likely keep pulling this on her.
Thanks for watching!
It's no other option to end this, but to wake up early next morning and leave.
Thanks for watching!
I love it when the offender becomes the "victim" smh
Thanks for watching!
The emotional invalidation and manipulative behavior remind me of my abuser. Penn gotta break free, there is so much better. Especially after being slapped when a panic attack was coming- just no
Super agree with you.
Thanks for watching!
She said no from the beginning. Just wanted to go to bed!
Thanks for watching!
So glade you made that movie, even more happy it has been reconized and won! Now it have to be seen. So well done, leaving the ppl with their own questions and reactions, who is right, who is wrong? was it or not an assault? what could have been different to change the way that they are both feeling after? does alcool is truely an excuse? So well done. Thank you!
Thank YOU! So glad you liked it!
This is the first short film I've seen almost 8 times. great short film❤️
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it. 😊

it's a good short film but rape is horrid thing. She didn't deserve to be treated that way. She's gotta get away.
We agree 100%.
"Do you love me" is calculated emotional manipulation. "If you love me, you'll..." is even worse. "I would never hurt you" defines EVERYTHING I do as unhurtful - it's the same as the President saying "if I do it it's not a crime", or God saying "if I do it it's not a sin."
Failing to take responsibility, whether blaming alcohol or blaming the victim not using a definite "No" or "Stop", is narcissistic & borderline gaslighting & very unhealthy for a relationship.
If she feels used or taken advantage of or violated, she should learn to be more resistant & definite in setting boundaries & stating her wishes or pushing away from something unwanted... But the violator should learn to "take a hint" & not manipulate to get what she wants.
Simple forgiveness or "letting it go" will not put this rel back on track. Being sensitive to each other's weaknesses or triggers or harmful tendencies & being willing to change one's own harmful perspectives/behaviors are NECESSARY to relationship success.
In the end, whether it was innocent fooling around or assault/rape, isn't as important as recognizing what each one did "wrong" that could/should have been done differently or not done at all. Without changing HOW one loves oneself or a partner & how to interact in more positive/caring/honest ways, "mistakes" & misunderstandings will continue to poison the relationship.
This is a great comment. Thanks for watching!
Tough subject but so well written and So well acted. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍
Thank you!
Excelent ! I hope she eventually escapes from this toxic relationship.
Thanks for watching!
This is so simple yet so good. Wow
Thank you so much!
Agree with the other comments, well acted and written! Great job.
Thanks for watching!
Don't simply blamed beers and wines , blame why what and who....
Hell of a topic! Very well done. I just wish it were five minutes longer in order to have some closure and have a good ending. Or at least an ending.
Thanks for watching!
Can a woman violate another woman's emotional and physical boundaries? You bet your ass she can!
Most definitely.
Love this 💯👭🌈❤❤❤❤❤
Love this movie I've seen this 6 times for today ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much!
Me too!
@@markford4946Thanks for watching!
*I* for one hope deeply that these actresses don't wind up in situations that're morally hazardous in their workplace tasks.
They are fine.
@@shenreice Good, as this kind of workplace task can easily get morally hazardous; yet these ladies really are playing the roles of villainesses- I'm really only concerned about their *own* morals as far as what they'd be tasked with doing in the meantime of portraying these evil women they're showing on-screen.
Chilling. Very well acted . Great script.
Thanks for watching!
She keeps trying to forcee herself on her and guilt tripping her by saying "oh but you love me" "you know I love you"...
Like that's toxic and it doesn't make it okay-
So true.
Good movie ❤❤
Thank you!
Very good film.
Thank you!
Well that turned dark in a hurry.
Thanks for watching!
Sadly this happens alot. Its happened to me. They just wouldnt take no for an answer.
Sorry this happened to you.
@@shenreice I appreciate it. Im sure its happened to many of us. It hurts when its someone you trusted.
@@KelmakekThat makes it really hard.
Well done.
Thank you!
If it had been a guy, it would have been labeled as rape so the same thing applies here in my opinion
Very true. Thanks for watching!
Very Sweet 💘💘
Thank you!
Everyone need there own freedom🗽
Thanks for watching!
i was going to write somthing but i really dont know what to say about this problem,,except thank you,,;) ,,,,,
Thanks for watching! It's a tough topic.
Domestic violence and gaslighting? Basic bullying behavior- well, seeing as these ladies would be rated as "villainesses" as that's the *only* kind of individual to go for a same-sex "marriage" or even support that kind of "lifestyle" it does behoove one to conclude domestic abuse will ensue.
Why are you watching the video if you're against same sex marriage? Go somewhere else.
@@shenreice Think about the elements to this: basically domestic abuse- that's a correlation between this kind of fake marriage between these two villainesses, and their lifestyle.
And under what basis would I? Also, why would this be here if it wasn't intended that it be able to be viewed, pray tell? Not that I'm in any realistic way against these cautionary tales of domestic abuse in this kind of fake marriage, not in the least... nor ever could I be against this kind of a claim.
Likewise, nor am I against their safety, my concern is the safety of the actresses, moral safety, from being corrupted by portraying *actual* villainesses.
Wow...the gaslighting.
Right? So awful.
Ohhhh... 🤭🤭.the good couple knowing and understand each others. The bad couple is always make it trouble. But... Hehehehe.. Ending for that is.. Very cool on bed... Hehehehe 😁😁😁😀😀
Thanks for watching!

Well done.
