Sunday 15–Thursday 19 March, 2015
Brenda Myers-Powell is one of the most extraordinary women you will ever meet. A drug-addicted teenage prostitute known as ‘Breezy’, Brenda woke in hospital after a violent encounter with a client and decided that her life had to change. She now runs the Dreamcatcher Foundation, working with hundreds of women and girls who want to make similar changes. Kim Longinotto’s important documentary puts Brenda’s inspirational example at the heart of an unflinching examination of the cycle of neglect, violence and exploitation that leaves thousands of women believing that prostitution is their only option for survival.
