Film

Some Protection

Director

Marjut Rimminen

Year

1987

Fourth film in the Blind Justice documentary animation series about women and the law. Based on the real life experiences of Josie O Dwyer, the film uses her voice as commentary, taken from hours of taped conversation with the filmmaker. Different styles of drawing convey her emotions and the devastating effects detention and imprisonment have on young girls put away 'for their own protection'.
