Just 20

An experimental look at the harsh reality of date rape in youth or college culture inspired by the statement made by Dan A. Turner, the father of convicted Stanford rapist Brock Turner, urging a judge to sentence his son to probation, which sparked outrage.

That is a steep price to pay for 20 minutes of action out of his 20 plus years of life." Just 20 is an unflinching look at what 20 minutes of "action" looks like, let alone wondering its effects for the victim for a life time to come.
