Extra, Extra: Toronto Without Borders Edition

Since 2008, Toronto’s Lucy Zhao, director Tiffany Hsiung, and Golden Nugget Productions have been working hard to raise funds for the documentary Within Every Woman. It is a documentary about the tragic stories and, until recently, secrets of the Second World War’s “comfort women,” who were kidnapped and kept as sexual slaves for Japanese Imperial soldiers. The project’s goal is to record the stories of these women, now mostly in their 80s and 90s. To make sure the project is completed, the project’s organizers are using Kickstarter to help meet their June 30 fundraising deadline. Hsiung is also touring Toronto high schools to share what she’s learned with local students. See more details on how to donate and watch the official trailer here.
