Synopsis
Spoiler shield

At a 2012 pre-season high-school football party in Steubenville, Ohio, a young woman was raped by members of the beloved high school football team. The aftermath exposed an entire culture of complicityβ€”and Roll Red Roll maps out the roles that peer pressure, denial, sports machismo, and social media each played in the tragedy.

β€œWhen social media, β€œboy will be boys,” and vigilante justice collide, Steubenville, Ohio will never be the same.”
