Vday

A GREAT CAMPAIGN TOOL FOR YOUR ORGANISATION

We are thrilled to offer you a copy of the documentary film called ‘Until the Violence Stops' which can be used as a powerful campaigning tool for your V-Day as well as a V-Day event option in and of itself.

We suggest that organising a film screening of this documentary prior to your V-Day and performance of ‘The Vagina Monologues' can help you to:

o Create & reach new audiences

o Maximise awareness & word of your V-DAY

o Boost ticket sales

o Educate

o Inspire your cast/colleagues/friends/organisers

o Encourage others to get involved

o Raise awareness

o Produce funds

You may want to host a film screening either as a promotional event for your V-Day, as an awareness raising event, or as a fundraiser.

"Extraordinarily empowering and heartbreakingly funny, the Sundance favorite and Emmy Award winning UNTIL THE VIOLENCE STOPS chronicles how The Vagina Monologues grew into V-Day, the international grassroots movement to stop violence against women and girls.

 

In 2002, over eight hundred cities around the world participated in V-Day. From locales as diverse as New York, the Phillippines and Kenya, V-Day and director Abby Epstein's UNTIL THE VIOLENCE STOPS features emotionally charged interviews and readings by everyday and celebrity women (including Rosie Perez, Salma Hayek, Rosario Dawson, Jane Fonda and LisaGay Hamilton), all of whom courageously reveal their intimate experiences and bond together to break the silence that surrounds abuse. More than just a group testimonial, UNTIL THE VIOLENCE STOPS is a moving celebration of community awareness that leaves us with the hope that change can happen." (vspot.vday.org)
