Abstract: »Tracy Everbach discusses how the Netflix miniseries Unbelievable (2019) offers a feminist deconstruction of traditional rape and sexual assault portrayals featured in male-centered dramas that feature women as victims and men as cops and criminals. By focusing on the work of two women detectives, Unbelievable presents survivors being believed and treated with empathy and respect, and decreases the usually indulgent and underserved attention to the perpetrator, thereby making a powerful statement about conditions within rape culture.« (Source: Funnell, Lisa, and Ralph Beliveau. »Introduction: The Promise of #MeToo as a Theoretical Lens.« Screening #MeToo: Rape Culture in Hollywood.
