Phoenix Rising

Director : Lisa Heller, Regina K. Scully, Kirsten Sheridan

"When the laws don’t protect you, change them."

Actress and activist Evan Rachel Wood takes her experience as a survivor of domestic violence and pursues justice, heals generational wounds, and reclaims her story. Almost a decade after escaping a dangerous relationship, Wood co-authors and successfully lobbies for passage of The Phoenix Act, legislation that extends the statute of limitations for domestic violence cases in California.
