In the light of our recent discussions about sex work the previous month we are going to project the documentary "Transvestites also cry", by Sebastiano d'Ayala Valva, a documentary about the hardships and the everyday challenges that trans and immigrant sex workers face in today's Europe. After the projection will follow discussion.
DESCRIPTION:
Paris. In a narrow street, a few steps away from Place de Clichy, two dirty hotels face each other. Behind their walls take place the lives of trans people from Ecuador. All of them work as sex workers in bois de Boulogne.
