Description / Descripción

Were the cities made for women? While the #MeToo Movement united sexual harassment victims throughout the world, this crucial documentary goes beyond and explicitly illustrates how the participation of women in open urban spaces is marked by insecurity. The film explores the public space as a place of violence—especially sexual harassment—and analyzes how campaigns promoted by activists and feminists have changed power relationships between men and women in the streets and on the Internet in Brazil. Enough With Catcalling follows Raquel, Rosa, and Teresa, in three different Brazilian cities, who share with us their experiences with catcalling. The film also includes insightful footage from hidden cameras worn by women in their day to day life, as well as eye-opening conversations between specialists and men about harassment, body image, and masculinity.

Uma pesquisa de 2015 da ONG ActionAid revelou que 86% das brasileiras já sofreram assédio em espaços urbanos. Entre elas, 77% já receberam assobios e 57% ouviram comentário de cunho sexual. Não é difícil encontrar mulheres que comprovem a veracidade desses números. O documentário Chega de fiu fiu inicia sua narrativa com relatos em off de vítimas de assédio sexual. Elas relembram agressões verbais, psicológicas e físicas que sofreram em locais públicos. As vozes são tantas que se somam, confundemse e ecoam pela cena rotineira da cidade. (Fim20)
