Plots(1)
An art student struggling with creativity is violently raped by a fellow classmate. After attempting the traditional routes to cope with her trauma, she impulsively confronts her attacker - a decision that has deadly repercussions. Her world is turned upside down as a chilling reality is uncovered: she is one of many silenced sexual assault survivors on campus. A vigilante is born- retribution is the inspiration she's been waiting for. (South by Southwest Film Festival)

M.F.A. is a naïve feminist take on a major American issue – sexual violence against women. Given the childish and “cool”
approach taken to this serious issue here, the movie takes itself way too seriously. And it is the complete antithesis of
the fun movies by Russ Meyer. [Sitges FF]

It has a good theme done well, and I mean visually, but the film deserved to have been conceived a little differently. Either go deeper into the psychology and take it a little more seriously, or - and this would be better - if it was a little more bizarre and gritty, maybe even lightened up in some moments. This way it pushes the envelope too much without really adding anything to the topic.
