Description

N.Y. PREMIERE

Tampon, Our Closest Enemy
Audrey Gloaguen
France | 2017 | 52 min

In the presence of filmmaker Audrey Gloaguen

This is an International investigation about dangers of the tampons. Cases of menstrual toxic shocks are increasing around the world and woman that have been close to death are witnessing. Thanks to independent studies and tests, we know now that tampons contain dioxinS, toxic components, among 10 the most dangerous chemicals classified by the WHO. However, a real taboo surrounds this product, while women use an average of 11K tampons in their lives. We travel to the US, Netherlands, France, Belgium to meet scientists and victims.

U.S PREMIERE

Free Period
Alison Piper
United Kingdom | 2017 | 6 min 7 s

When schoolgirl Leanne can’t afford a sanitary pad she lines her underwear with toilet paper and ends up bleeding in front of her class. Leanne overcomes this humiliation with a shocking act of rebellion - against a bully, a teacher, and against the stigma which acts as a barrier to her needs.
