The screening will be used to launch a brand new retreat for women veterans who have experienced military sexual assault. The unique retreat, scheduled in October in central Arkansas, will become the prototype for retreats to take place throughout the United States.
 
The screening will be on Thursday, March 7, 2013 at the Central Theater, 1008 Central Avenue in Hot Springs, Arkansas. There will be a reception at 5:30 pm honoring one of the women featured in the documentary - BriGette McCoy, and the screening at 6:30 pm. Online pre-purchase tickets are $10 and $12 at the door. Due to the themes of war and sexual trauma, this film should be viewed by mature audiences. The film and retreat are collaborative events of Committed to Freedom, an organization that helps survivors of abuse, exploitation, and sexual trauma, and Harvesting Happiness for Heroes, an organization that helps veterans to overcome combat related PTSD, and the film makers.
