Greenlit: Rape on the Nightshift, Univision
Rape on the Night Shift / Violación de un Sueño: Jornada Nocturna – A gripping documentary that uncovers stories of sexual abuse secretly taking place after business hours in office buildings and malls across the United States. The alleged victims are mostly immigrant women, many of them undocumented, who never expected that a simple janitorial job would put them at risk of sexual exploitation and humiliation by their co-workers and supervisors.
The film features testimonials from female janitorial workers who allege that they have been subjected to sexual abuse on the job during the night shift, as well as interviews with an attorney specializing in sexual harassment laws in the workplace and a watchdog group that monitors workplace conditions for janitors. Many of the women in this situation are unwilling to report their attackers for fear of losing their jobs or getting deported and employers have often fallen short in dealing with the problem
