The statistics dealing with women, self-esteem, and body image paint a bleak picture: 80% of fourth-grade girls are on a diet at any given moment, and 20% of young American women have an eating disorder.

The statistics dealing with women, self-esteem, and body image paint a bleak picture: 80% of fourth-grade girls are on a diet at any given moment, and 20% of young American women have an eating disorder. Experts agree that dialogue and openness are two keys to solving a complicated social and psychological problem. This candid and thought-provoking video illustrates how such methods might work. In it, seven diverse college-age women share their feelings about their bodies during a three-day retreat. They explore some of the complex sources of their feelings and examine images of women’s bodies in mass media. The discussions are at times humorous and at times powerfully moving, and include often-dramatic interactions between the seven women as they challenge one another’s perceptions and stereotypes. The group is led by Dr. Michelle Wolf, Professor of Communications at San Francisco State Univ. and a noted researcher on body-image issues. She encourages the participants to articulate their frequently strong feelings about their bodies and guides them toward understanding those feelings and developing self-esteem and body acceptance. In the final segment of the video, the women explore possible solutions for themselves, for other women, parents, and authority figures such as teachers. “Body Image: The Quest for Perfection” is sure to arouse and hold the interest of college students, who will empathize with the young women who are featured. The video will motivate lively discussion of vital issues in classes in psychology, women’s studies, sociology, media studies, diversity, and counseling. It was produced by Kelly Briley and is enhanced by an excellent study guide.

That's what this film does, it shows that help is available: to file a complaint, through reception in specialized structures, to be listened to... to permit the victims to dare to talk to the police, in a society that would prefer them to remain silent.

Stacey Dooley is known for tackling tough subject matter in her popular investigative documentaries. In this daring new series, the fearless reporter steps away from her usual investigative role to immerse herself fully in some of the world’s most controversial training camps, campaigns and youth movements to get right to the heart of their extreme ideologies and beliefs. Stacey signs up to live, breathe and train 24/7 under the watchful eyes of experts and leaders in the intense ideological worlds. These include the big game hunting community and pro-life youth training camps. Are the issues as clear cut as she’d previously imagined? While Stacey grapples with her own instincts and emotions, can these groups bring her round to their way of thinking?

For Karishma, Apsana and Samira, going to school to complete their secondary education represented a seismic shift in worldview and a radical reappraisal of what their lives could become. Suddenly, a life trapped within four walls, fulfilling societal expectations came into question when the possibility of a life outside of the house became palpable. But as final exams approached, their families began preparations for their weddings. Immediately, they were forced to choose between their quickly evolving dreams and their obligations to their community. These stories combined show the complexity that emerges on the path to self-determination within a conservative, Muslim town - Dholka located in the western state of Gujarat, India. Filmed over 4 years, Brave Girls explores the urgent questions about the empowerment of women in the developing world from the perspective of the women living those questions and facing the consequences of answering them.
