Film-maker Nate Parker, on an awards campaign for his debut film The Birth of a Nation, addressed a rape allegation made while he was a student in 1999.
Parker, however, told Deadline that he will not revisit the matter while promoting The Birth of a Nation.
Parker addressed the trial and its aftermath on Friday in an interview with Deadline, as he continued on a campaign for The Birth of a Nation.
During his sophomore year at Penn State University, Parker and his roommate, Jean Celestin, who shares co-story credit with Parker on The Birth of a Nation, were accused of raping a female student while she was unconscious.
