In this feature-length documentary, women who have worked as prostitutes denounce the current trend toward making prostitution a job “like any other.” They are 22, 34, or 48 years old, and live in Montreal, Quebec City, or Ottawa. These women, who have recently left prostitution or are trying to leave it, are waging a bitter battle to reintegrate into society and find peace and security. In this long, treacherous process, each seeks to regain control of their lives, regain their self-esteem, and earn a place in the sun.
