V-DAY: UNTIL THE VIOLENCE STOPS

02.phillipines.jpgThis film will be preceded by or followed by a V-day panel discussion event featuring special guests and organized by the Women's Resources Center at the University of Ottawa. The film may also be cancelled to make more time for the panel event (TBA via the AVS e-mail list).

The official award-winning documentary film of the V-Day global movement to stop violence against women and girls:

Extraordinarily empowering and heartbreakingly funny, the Sundance favorite UNTIL THE VIOLENCE STOPS chronicles how Eve Ensler's hit off-Broadway solo show The Vagina Monologues grew into V-Day, an international grassroots movement to stop violence against women and girls. The first of its kind, The Vagina Monologues has been widely recognized as "a celebration of women's sexuality and a condemnation of its violation" (The New York Times) and praised as "frank, humorous and moving" (Chicago Tribune).
