The Assault

The Assault (2014) is a TV drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Jason Winn and drawn from events that shocked a small Ohio town in 2012.

A high school cheerleader wakes up with no memory of the night before. What she can't recall, her classmates documented — photos and videos circulated online become both the accusers' mistake and her only evidence. Mackenzie Vega plays the young woman piecing together an attack through a trail of posts she'd rather didn't exist. Malik Yoba and Candy Alexander co-star as the detective and her mother navigating a town where football loyalty runs deeper than most people's sense of right.

The film refuses to sensationalize. That restraint is what makes the slow-burn legal confrontation stick. Stream The Assault (2014) in good quality on iFILM.
