In October 2017, the Harvey Weinstein scandal broke—the catalyst for #MeToo, #TimesUp, and the airing of countless other sexual misconduct allegations, in Hollywood and beyond. Acclaimed filmmaker Barry Avrich, who had documented Weinstein’s success and fury in his 2010 doc Unauthorized: The Harvey Weinstein Project, returns to chronicle the takedown of the disgraced movie mogul. Featuring interviews with reporters, insiders, and alleged victims, as well as divisive Canadian figures Marie Henein and Margaret Wente, The Reckoning brings controversial voices and undeterred women to the forefront in an unsettling look at one of the most explosive watersheds of sexual politics.
