SHE WAS A U.S. NAVY SAILOR. SHE WAS RAPED & MURDERED BY A FELLOW SAILOR
THE NAVY KNEW WHO HE WAS.
ANGELINA RESENDIZ WAS 21 YEARS OLD.
This Film Refuses To Look Away
He Said, She Said, Now Someone Is Dead
Angelina Resendiz was a United States Navy sailor. She was 21 years old. She was raped and murdered aboard a U.S. naval vessel by a fellow sailor — a man with a documented history of sexual violence that the Navy knew about and chose to ignore.
She is not an anomaly. She is the endpoint of a story the military has spent decades refusing to finish.
In 2012, the documentary The Invisible War sounded the alarm. It exposed the epidemic of sexual assault inside the U.S. military, sparked congressional hearings, and led to sweeping reforms in military justice. It was supposed to change everything.
It didn't.
WHY THIS FILM NEEDS TO GET LOUD! NOW!
On June 8, 2026, a court martial convenes at Naval Station Norfolk, Virginia.
The accused: Jer'Miah Copeland, U.S. Navy, charged with the rape and murder of Angelina Resendiz.
Five additional victims are expected to testify. The trial runs through June 29.
Our cameras will be there.
The country needs to be watching
DONATE TO HELP US FINISH
A PROMISE KEPT
Kip Azzoni, the film's producer, made a promise to Esmi Cantu Castle — mother to mother — that Angelina's story would not disappear.
Kip traveled to Whidbey Island, Washington — reachable only by ferry — multiple times to embed in Angelina's community and document what the Navy knew, and when. She was present in Brownsville, Texas, when Esmi received her daughter's body.
No other filmmaker was there.
This film exists because someone refused to look away.
