“If the truth is inconvenient, they don’t believe it.” Such is the takeaway from the first trailer for Netflix’s Unbelievable, a new limited series inspired by The Marshall Project and ProPublica’s Pulitzer Prize-winning article “An Unbelievable Story Of Rape.” Booksmart’s Kaitlyn Dever stars as a teenager whose story of a sexual assault is dismissed by investigators, while Toni Collette and Merritt Wever round out the cast as detectives who meet while investigating similar cases of intruder rapes. What emerges is a systemic failure on the part of law enforcement to properly investigate claims of sexual assault, as well as an exploration of the enduring trauma born from it.
