SUMMARY:A Better Man
DESCRIPTION:A Better Man |Lawrence Jackman &amp\; Attiya Khan | 2017 |
  1 h 19 min\n\nOn a hot summer night 22 years ago\, 18-year-old Attiya K
 han ran through the streets\, frightened for her life. She was fleeing h
 er ex-boyfriend Steve\, who’d been abusing her on a daily basis. Now\, a
 ll these years later\, Attiya has asked Steve to meet. She wants to know
  how he remembers their relationship and if he is willing to take responsi
 bility for his violent actions. This emotionally raw first meeting\, filme
 d by Attiya with Steve’s consent\, is the starting point for A Better Ma
 n. The rough footage also marks a new beginning in Attiya’s own recovery
  process—as well as an important starting point for Steve. For the first
  time ever\, he speaks of the abuse and cracks opens the door to dealing w
 ith the past. Illuminating a new paradigm for domestic-violence prevention
 \, A Better Man offers a fresh and nuanced look at the healing and revela
 tion that can happen for everyone involved when men take responsibility fo
 r their abuse. It also empowers audience members to play new roles in chal
 lenging domestic violence\, whether it’s in their own relationships or a
 s part of a broader movement for social change.\n\nThis film deals with ma
 ture subject matter. Viewer discretion is advised. \n\nFor more informati
