Rent The Film IF I TELL YOU (followed by a Q&A panel discussion)
In Partnership With RAINN
Suspenseful, tender and lyrical, IF I TELL YOU is a coming of age drama set in Northern Minnesota that follows Michael (Etienne Kellici) and his friends as they relish in the carefree joys of early adolescence. Then one day Michael’s mom comes home with a black eye and a busted lip but won’t talk about it. He’s desperate to know what happened but his father Brian (Bill Heck) avoids him, his Granny (Carol Kane) shushes him, his usually resilient mother (Allison Miller) can’t get out of bed, and their neighbors Sam (Christopher Jackson) and Luisa (Carmela Zumbado) suspect Brian is the culprit. Directed by Tessa Blake.

The Film

IF I TELL YOU has formed a partnership with RAINN, the country’s largest anti-sexual violence organization, for this special event. A central element of the partnership is a filmed panel discussion hosted by Jennifer Simmons Kaleba, Vice President of Communications at RAINN, joined by IF I TELL YOU film director Tessa Blake, psychologist Kenneth Feiner, PhD, citizen’s advocate and NFL football linebacker James Smith-Williams, and parent advocate and educator Derrick Hurley, author of ‘Antiguan Justice: A Father’s Fight.’ Their discussion focuses on allyship, the male perspective, and the role of community in supporting survivors. Proceeds from these screenings will be divided evenly between RAINN and the film.
