Amber Heard<\/strong><\/a> says her voice has felt drowned out since the Johnny Depp<\/strong><\/a> trial … lamenting the loss of her story in a new documentary.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The actress appears in the new doc “Silenced” which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival Saturday … and she reflects on her legal battle with her ex-husband in the clip — including the impact it’s had on speaking her truth.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Heard said, “I didn\u2019t understand it could get so much worse for me as a woman, using my voice. I have lost my ability to speak. I am not here to tell my story. I don\u2019t want to tell my story, In fact, I don\u2019t want to use my voice anymore. That\u2019s the problem.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n


\n<\/p>\n

\n

As you know … Depp filed a defamation lawsuit against Heard after she claimed he physically abused him in a 2018 op-ed published by The Washington Post.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

A jury ultimately sided<\/strong><\/a> with Depp and awarded him millions of dollars in damages … while the jury sided with Heard in her countersuit.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Heard has retreated from the spotlight in recent years … moving to Spain<\/strong><\/a> in the aftermath of the verdict and welcoming twins last year.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

While Heard’s image hasn’t really recovered in the aftermath of the trial, Depp’s has … and he’s increasingly booking bigger and bigger projects — recently directing a film starring Al Pacino<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
