A24
I Was Here is a tense, emotionally raw drama that examines the ripple effects of trauma when a dangerous man preys on young women. Set across small-town diners, quiet parks, and everyday spaces, the film follows Savannah, a 14-year-old girl whose encounter with Joey Hardson — a charming but predatory drifter — changes her life forever. As Savannah struggles with guilt, nightmares, and the fear of disappointing her parents, her story intersects with those of Victoria and Jocelyn, two other young women carrying their own scars from Joey’s predatory pattern. Through their eyes, the film explores the silence victims keep, the rage of families torn between justice and protection, and the terrifying normalcy of men like Joey who hide in plain sight. With powerhouse performances and an unflinching look at resilience, I Was Here asks a difficult question: how many lives does it take before one voice is finally heard?
