"Born Into Brothels"

[MandalayBay 575]

I've been voraciously watching and studying documentaries (studying what styles are good and what styles are bad) should my documentary idea ever move forward. For those not aware, I have been unable to find enough Toronto/Ottawa SPs to come forward to star in my documentary concept: http://www.canadianescortsdoc.com. I need 3 women and have only been able to find 1.

 

Anyways, I watched this documentary last night that changed me forever. It is called "Born Into Brothels" and I highly recommend everyone watch it. You can view the entire documentary online for free here: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4952714190753324164#

 

I was so moved that I immediately went on the website of a charitable organization created as a result of the documentary. http://www.kids-with-cameras.org

 

I just wanted to issue a friendly challenge to all CERB members to make a donation to this organization.

 

I hope this documentary touches you as much as it has touched me.

 

Warm Regards,

 

Mandalay

 

p.s. I have no affiliation with this organization whatsoever, in case anyone is wondering. It sure feels good to help these good people in their important work, though ... even if it's just a financial contribution.

The film is excellent... so good in fact that it was the recipient of the Academy Award for Best Documentary at the 2005 Oscars and won 13 other best in class awards at other film festivals.

 

For a bit more information, IMDB has a listing http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0388789/

I watched this documentary "Born in Brothels".....it is sad to see my people suffering in this way.

 

Very educating, thank-you.

 

I hope they come out with something showing how Kochi and Tapasi are doing......

If I could create a documentary half amazing as Born Into Brothels, I will have left an important mark on the world.

 

However the tone of the idea is much different. It is to show that we are not all victims.
