| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
In Descent, acclaimed actress Rosario Dawson plays the most
controversial character of her career: a promising college
student who becomes bent on seeking revenge after a shocking
act of violence is committed on her. The feature debut of
co-writer/ director/producer Talia Lugacy, Descent is a film
that unnervingly tackles some of the country's most taboo
subjects.
Maya's (ROSARIO DAWSON) life seems blessed- the boys can't
resist her charm and beauty and she has a promising academic
future - yet she still feels alone. Jared's (CHAD FAUST) is
also blessed with ease. The two begin to flirt and date but
on one night things move too far too fast and Maya tries to
pull away but he won't let go.
After this violation, Maya breaks away from everything familiar.
She enters the new semester transformed: bold and dynamic
in a world that suddenly seems small and protected to her.
She vows vengeance on her attacker. She will be in control.
Descent is an unforgettable tale of innocence shattered,
dreams destroyed, and vengeance fulfilled, featuring a shattering,
career-defining performance from Dawson.
