520    This documentary follows a series of intimate 
       conversations between a woman and her former boyfriend 
       when she confronts him about their history of domestic 
       abuse. More than 20 years have passed when filmmaker 
       Attiya Khan asks her ex-boyfriend, Steve, to meet. Steve 
       abused Attiya every day during the two years they lived 
       together. She finally fled out of fear for her life, and 
       has carried the emotional scars ever since. Now, Attiya 
       wants to talk to Steve, searching to answer a question 
       that is both simple and incredibly complicated: Will Steve
       take responsibility? A BETTER MAN follows this bold and 
       radical exploration of restorative justice. Through 
       emotionally raw conversations, Attiya and Steve begin a 
       new recovery process-and illustrate a new paradigm for 
       domestic violence prevention. The film offers a fresh and 
       nuanced look at the healing and revelation that can happen
       for everyone involved when men take responsibility for 
       their abusive behavior. Official Selection at the **Hot 
       Docs International Film Festival.** "*A revolutionary 
       documentary. The next step in helping others find new ways
       to heal.*"- Vulture
