Ukraine Is Not a Brothel

I read Victor Malarek's excellent book, "The Natasha's" this morning and followed it up with this film which covers some of the same material.

"Natasha's" are prostitutes who are predominantly from Russia and Ukraine and in this documentary we are shown protesters who use their states of undress to deliver a message against patriarchy. Say what!!!

The founder of the Femen movement is a Charles Manson type who organized the rallies and even came up with the slogans displayed on the women's bodies. Victor is interviewed and he says that women are not capable of leading their own movement.

The women agree that he has controlled them and one of them compares it to the "Stockholm Syndrome." I found it all rather silly although I was captivated by many of the beautiful Ukranian women. Victor has great taste.
