4/5
It's a strong documentary that is a heavy, hard watch but worth it to see how this could happen in a big city, anywhere really. Go to Full Review

This true-crime documentary offers a harrowing look at what fate unfortunately often has in store for marginalized women, and why society turns a blind eye to their wellbeing. Go to Full Review
Molly Laich Missoula Independent 06/30/2017
Through candid interviews and images of the impoverished Mount Pleasant community, Unseen acts as a haunting indictment of a police force that failed its citizens. Go to Full Review

Pauline W 10/03/2024 Such a heartbreaking documentary... With that house's proximity to other houses and shops people should have been alerted by the smell that something was not okay but no one cared because those affected were dealing with addiction issues and normally people don't see any value in them. I was particularly appalled by the interview of Assad Tayeh Owner Imperial Beverage.....from minute 24.54 to 25.32... what he said about the victims shocked me. These were human lives but no one really paid attention or cared 😭😭 See more Eric L 05/10/2024 Really needed to hire a narrator. See more 09/16/2021 The ugly nasty side of a significant part of the American population. Excellently produced. Interviews with women that are heartbreaking and enraging. Is this the best we can do? Madness on a colossal scale, nobody paying any attention. Excellent no holds barred doc. See more adam b 01/04/2021 About as depressing as a true crime documentary can get. Quite the story; many red flags about this man were thrown to the police but apparently if the victim is a known crack addict, they don't care. Recommended See more 06/12/2020 Amazing. It succeeds because of its brutal honesty. The interviews really connect. I highly recommend this film. See more Read all reviews
