At Double Exposure 2025, MAGIC & MONSTERS Broke Decades of Silence

Survivors of childhood sexual abuse at America's preeminent children's theater did something extraordinary: they spoke out against very institution that harmed them to create accountability.

This is the power of investigative documentary—giving voice to those who've been silenced, creating space for difficult conversations, demanding justice.

100Reporters created Double Exposure as the nation's only film festival dedicated exclusively to investigative storytelling. We bring these films to audiences, create platforms for filmmakers, and prove that visual journalism changes minds.

This Giving Tuesday, NewsMatch doubles your support for filmmakers and journalists who refuse to look away.
