Red Light to Limelight - Storyville
Red Light To Limelight
In the red-light district of Kolkata, a group of women reclaim their voices through the power of storytelling. Given unprecedented access, cameras follow Rabin, Bilkis, Afsara and other sex-working mothers who navigate the narrow lanes of Kalighat, an area operating as an independent brothel district. Together, they form a grassroots film collective, producing videos that reflect the realities and challenges of their community
Red Light to Limelight - Storyville airs on BBC Four HD at 10:15 PM, Tuesday 3 March. (Subtitles, new.)
