A sobering documentary about the perils of being a young girl and believing the world is her friend. (Full disclaimer: I am friends with the mother of young Paige featured in this documentary as we are from the same hometown of Albany)

Audrie & Daisy recounts two different instances in which a young woman parties with the guys and is made to pay for it with shame, humiliation, degradation (by her peers and community) and even death (in the case of Audrie).

Tougher-than-we-can-ever-imagine Daisy survives her ordeal alongside her best friend, Paige, who is also raped the same evening (because boys will be boys) although luckily her rapist admits to his crime and she therefore doesn't find herself in legal turmoil. Yes ... revolting and disgusting. Daisy and her family (her brother is a solid chap) find themselves harassed and hounded by a community -- Maryville, MO (40 some minutes from home) where someone burns the family's house to the ground in spite!!! -- that refuses to believe their football stars could possibly be rapists. In towns like this athletes are small-town heroes and dynastic political families wield a lot of power.

Audrie & Daisy spends much time upon Daisy and the aftermath of her sexual assault/rape (she was 14 at the time, Paige 13) as it also interviews law enforcement officers in Nodaway County, MO (a bunch of idiots) who "won't point fingers" but don't mind naming names ... of girls who apparently lead boys astray. Much of it is shocking. Much of it is unbelievable. All of it is disturbing.

Brave and beautiful girls. Harsh and ugly world.

In the last couple of years rape has been on the front page nearly every day. And just think about how often was justice served... Not that often. And just think about the cases where the "boys" were protected by law enforcement. (Brock Turner!)

This documentary is just an example of that. Two girls drinking too much and getting used and harassed. On of them now dead. It shows how corrupt and ignorant the government and the police are.

The moment where I wanted to punch the screen was the one, where the sheriff said, that it's not even rape and it's always the boys and they just want to leave it behind, go to college and get on with their lives. In that moment I was sick to my stomach. Guess what?? The girls can't move on because they were humiliated and bullied to the point when they couldn't bear it any longer.

This documentary should be mandatory not just in school but in places where men are training to be a part of law enforcement. Everyone should be educated on sexual assault.

Very good and high quality documentary. The main attention was on the evens that happened, how and why it happened. I still can't believe that someone has take her own life just because some college dudes wanted to have fun. I was so angry when interviewer asked what guy have learnt from everything. His answer was that girls like to gossip and guys don't. Excuse me, what?! Everything you learnt after Ausie's suicide because of your fault that girls like to gossip? How he can be a human being, that's just outrage. Another girl's - Daisy story seemed so sad. Sheriff who has 2 girls his own acting like ignorant. When interviewer told but in this case boys made crime, he answered with did they? Are you seriously? How he is not dismissed from his position? This was so unfair, the verdict was such mild. Both were horrible events but documentary was really nice, one of the best documentaries I've seen.
