Help Fund Proposed Film “Turn Around”

May 7, 2012 By HKearl

“One stalking man is enough to cause fear in a woman. But how many women are needed to cause fear in a man?”

This is a question that award-winning filmmaker Aćim Vasic, who is located in Paris, France, will address in his short film “Turn Around.”

He needs YOUR help to fund it. Visit his Indiegogo webpage to learn more about the film and to donate!!

“We’re making this film in order to raise the awareness about street harassment, that is a major issue across the world and affects many, many women. Many men don’t realize how it is to be a woman walking alone, especially in the night, turning around, feeling unsafe, the feeling of being hunted, listening to whistles and calls and hearing fallowing steps.”

“Turn Around” reflects on this problem in a metaphorical and hyperbolic way, trying to create awareness and consciousness in one man (the main character), and cause him to reconsider his attitude towards women as equal human beings and not sexual objects. And I hope that this film will help in creating this awareness in men all around the world.”

Hooray for male allies! I’m thrilled he’s not only taking on this issue but I appreciate how he wants to use his film-making talents to bring other men’s attention to this pervasive problem.

Again, if you can, please donate ($10 or more) to help him create this important film.
