Film mirrors lives of marginalized women
“Building Bridge: a housing project for women,” produced by Jackie Levitin, a professor of women’s studies and contemporary arts at SFU, debuted at the 2003 Vancouver International Film Festival. The internationally recognized documentary flowed from SFU anthropologist Dara Culhane’s research into the health of women living in a new housing project – Bridge Housing – in Vancouver’s downtown eastside. Bridge Housing offers a safe haven and temporary accommodation for women trying to escape the streets of Vancouver's poorest neighbourhood. SFU waived its copyright to the film and a forthcoming book so that royalties can be invested in future housing projects. For more information
