Directors Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering, who previously directed the college sexual assault documentary The Hunting Ground, are teaming up again for a project currently known as the Hollywood Sexual Assault Documentary, which will delve into the rampant sexual assault allegations against Harvey Weinstein and many others that have come to light in recent weeks.
The film will be financed by Impact Partners, which provided financial backing for The Hunting Ground, The Invisible War, The Cove, Hell and Back Again, Dina, Icarus, Step and The Queen of Versailles.
The Hunting Ground was actually distributed by a division of The Weinstein Company dubbed Radius-TWC, but shortly after the allegations against Harvey Weinstein came to light, the directors wrote a guest column for The Hollywood Reporter, asking for Harvey Weinstein to be expelled from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which he was just two days later.
Our film will also underscore the courage it takes to come forward and be a catalyst for change.”
