🎬 Title: Consent / Le Consentement

Story: In 2013, Vanessa Springora shares her experience of being influenced by a renowned author. At just 13 years old in 1986, she found herself entangled with a man nearly 50. Her narrative highlights a trifecta of predation—sexual, literary, and psychological—that extends beyond her personal experience. She reflects on the prevailing issues of her time and critiques a society overly enamored with fame and talent.
