Descent is a 2007 American thriller film directed by Talia Lugacy and produced by and starring Rosario Dawson.

Synopsis

Maya is an up-and-coming artist and college student. In the winter of her senior year, Maya attends a fraternity party and talks to Jared. She accepts his invitation to dinner at a nice restaurant, then goes to his apartment, just to talk. Jared soon reveals his true self when he suddenly assaults her. Jared brutally rapes Maya while uttering racist slurs in her ear. When he is finished, the sociopath Jared then threatens Maya that if she ever tells anyone what really went on in his apartment, he will naturally deny everything by putting back on his nice-guy facade and turn it all back at her.
