A Reason to Believe is a 1995 American drama independent film directed by Douglas Tirola.
Charlotte, a popular girl on campus, goes to a wild party while her boyfriend Wesley is not in town.
But Jim, whom she danced with at the party, soon joins her and forces Charlotte into a sexual encounter.
Feeling shame and self-blame, she grapples to find the courage to speak her mind.
But as members of his own fraternity and campus feminist groups begin to unpiece the puzzle, the ensuing experience challenges the trust and friendship of college students who thought they would be friends forever.
