Not Just a Ride Home invites the viewer into a survivor’s perspective—shot entirely in point-of-view to maintain anonymity for both survivor and perpetrator. This approach removes judgment and demands empathy, focusing instead on the emotional texture of surviving. Every moment was carefully crafted to walk the fine line between authenticity and retraumatization. The result is an unflinching, visceral glimpse into what survivors often endure—without ever showing too much.
