EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD IS ABOUT SEX EXCEPT SEX. SEX IS ABOUT POWER.

- Oscar Wilde


 
 
 
 


WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:

 

“TEST PATTERN OFFERS A FRESH WAY OF EXAMINING SEXUAL ASSAULT AND ITS AFTERMATH
ON SCREEN, ONE THAT FEELS JUST AS EMBLEMATIC OF ITS MOMENT AS THELMA & LOUISE.”
- SORAYA NADIA MCDONALD, FILM COMMENT

 

“WHAT’S MORE, THE FILM IMPLIES, WHEN A SYSTEMIC BREAKDOWN COMES, IT WILL BE MOST
CATASTROPHIC FOR BLACK PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY FOR BLACK WOMEN. THE SILENCE THAT
SURROUNDS RENESHA AND EVAN—THE SILENCE REGARDING THEIR IDENTITIES, THE SILENCE
REGARDING THE HECTIC PURSUIT OF A RAPE TEST, THE SILENCE REGARDING THE FAILURES
OF THE MEDICAL AND LEGAL SYSTEMS—IS A SILENCE THAT ECHOES THROUGH THE HALLS OF
POWER, AND THROUGH HISTORY. “TEST PATTERN,” IN THAT SENSE, IS AN ECHO OF AN
ECHO, A CONVERGENCE OF SOCIAL-SCIENTIFIC CINEMA AND STIFLED SCREAMS OF PAIN THAT
APPEARS DESIGNED, URGENTLY AND PRECISELY, TO BREAK THE SILENCE.” - THE NEW
YORKER

 

Overview:

Part psychological horror, part realist drama, this exhilarating debut feature
from Shatara Michelle Ford is set against the backdrop of national discussions
around inequitable health care and policing, the #metoo movement, and race in
America. Test Pattern follows an interracial couple whose relationship is put to
the test after a Black woman is sexually assaulted and her white boyfriend
drives her from hospital to hospital in search of a rape kit. Their story
reveals the systemic injustices and social conditioning women face when
navigating sex and consent within the American patriarchy. Winner of top prizes
at the BlackStar and New Orleans Film Festivals, this gripping social thriller
offers a unique exploration of institutional racism and sexism from a Black
woman's point of view. 


For all advocates, nurses, lawyers, and allies, this movie is a must-watch. Leda
Health along with the Academy of Forensic Nursing will be screening it on April
28th at 6 pm EST, followed by a Q&A panel.
