Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Amy Berg's doc Phoenix Rising, direct from HBO's YouTube: Phoenix Rising delves behind familiar headlines and explores the often-misunderstood aspects of domestic abuse, helping to shed light on the many factors that prevent survivors from coming forward with their stories as they deal with years of aftershocks and emotional trauma. The film intimately charts her journey as she moves toward naming her infamous abuser for the first time. Actress and activist Evan Rachel Wood takes her experience as a survivor of domestic violence to pursue justice, heal trauma, and reclaim her story in a culture that instinctively blames women.
