“The Hunting Ground,” a documentary that provides first-hand accounts from numerous women and men about sexual violence on college campuses, opens Friday in selected theaters in New York and California and was previewed this week at the White House. The film, by Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering, is likely to make waves in higher education because it puts names and faces onto an issue that has seized attention in Washington and at colleges around the country. In it, Andrea Pino and Annie E. Clark recount their experiences as students who were raped at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and as survivors in an activist movement seeking to force universities to do more to acknowledge a systemic problem, punish perpetrators and prevent future sexual violence.
