TrailerBonnie, a young and successful Latina architect, is sexually assaulted while walking home from an evening out with friends in Brooklyn. At first, she attempts to keep the assault a secret from her long-term boyfriend Matt, but the truth quickly emerges. Bonnie emphatically denies the impact of what has just happened to her. She fights to regain normalcy and control of her life, but returning to her old life is more complicated than expected. Her attempt to recapture the intimacy she previously had with Matt falters and cracks begin to surface in their relationship. Another attack in the neighborhood only drives Bonnie further into denial, before an encounter with an at-risk woman causes her to face the truth and confront her own self-blame.Genre: DramaActors: Stephanie Beatriz, Michael Stahl-David, Catherine Curtin, Conrad Ricamora, Cindy Cheung, Susan Heyward, Olga Merediz, Jessica M.

New York ObserverNovember 06, 2017The movie is about choices, alternatives, and how one woman regains control and balance through patience, trust and courage.
RogerEbert.comNovember 01, 2017A nuanced and sensitive exploration of the many ways rape affects a person's life, even as she tries like hell to get back to normal.
New York TimesOctober 31, 2017As a resource for those looking to understand the process of recovery, it's hard to imagine a more comprehensive or sympathetic look at the challenge of surviving.
indieWireOctober 31, 2017This is a micro-budget movie, cobbled together from the corners that it's cut and riddled with rookie mistakes, but none of that will likely matter to the people who need it most.
Village VoiceOctober 26, 2017The frank ways in which Thompson and Beatriz channel Bonnie make it clear that there's a lot of respect for this complex character navigating life-altering trauma.
Birth.Movies.Death.December 05, 2017The Light of the Moon is an admirable film about a challenging topic. Thompson tackles the subject of rape directly and honestly and doesn't shy away from its inflicted wounds.
Solzy at the MoviesDecember 04, 2017With a story about surviving sexual assault, The Light of the Moon may perhaps be one of the most timeliest films of the year.
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)November 27, 2017What the director wants us to understand, what the film dramatizes with a complexity that will likely feel personal, is that there isn't only one way to respond to rape.
