Synopsis
E. JEAN CARROLL V. DONALD J. TRUMP is the newest short film from Brave New Films that puts a spotlight on the egregious crimes of sexual assault by Donald Trump. This powerful film, featuring Ellen Burstyn, Kathryn Hahn, Lexi Underwood, and Regina Taylor, brings to life the courageous testimony of journalist and columnist E. Jean Carroll, who sued the former president in 2019 for sexual assault, battery, and defamation . Trump was found liable for sexual abuse and defamation, and as of 2024, he had been ordered to pay a total of $88.3 million in damages. Refusing to be silenced, this is E. Jean Carroll's harrowing testimony.
