Speaking about the documentary in an official description, Heard described how women are vilified and attacked when they speak up.
She said: « Silenced reveals a global pattern: When women speak out, powerful systems move to discredit and punish them. »
The case between Heard and Depp was settled in December 2022, with Heard taking to her Facebook page to share a statement.
Writing at the time, she said: « After a great deal of deliberation I have made a very difficult decision to settle the defamation case brought against me by my ex-husband in Virginia. »
« It’s important for me to say that I never chose this. I defended my truth and in doing so my life as I knew it was destroyed. »
She added: « The vilification I have faced on social media is an amplified version of the ways in which women are re-victimized when they come forward. »
Concluding the statement, Heard wrote: « Now I finally have an opportunity to emancipate myself from something I attempted to leave over six years ago and on terms I can agree to.
« I have made no admission. This is not an act of concession. There are no restrictions or gags with respect to my voice moving forward. »
