The title of the film comes from the Abraham Lincoln quote, “To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards of men.” I wanted to break the silence. I wanted this documentary to spark vital conversations to begin protesting the incarceration of battered women and the silent crisis of domestic violence. I wanted the film to help create environments for victims of abuse to feel comfortable to finally ask for help. I wanted the film to ignite a passion in individuals to finally speak up and say to that friend they are worried about, “Is everything alright? I’m really worried about you.” Just saying such a simple phrase could eventually be the difference between life and death of someone.” – Olivia Klaus, Director & Producer
