The films showing sex workers in a new light

BBC  

The films showing sex workers in a new light Nick Wall / Searchlight Pictures New films like Good Luck to You, Leo Grande are challenging cinematic tropes about sex workers. In 2021, Westwood launched the podcast A Sex Worker's Guide to the Galaxy, with the aim to "destigmatise and humanise sex workers". Ninja Thyberg's recently released Pleasure, a gruelling look into the world of pornography, is yet another example of how having sex workers involved in the creative process can aid honest representation. The power structure in place means the people with extra income available to spend on sex workers are cis white men, or seemingly cis white men, so that's where the demand is", says Westwood.
