The First

Vale the cherry.  Brightangel's blog is born!

I am proud, for my first entry into the bloggesphere to promote the documentary "Scarlet Road" which premiered on SBS television on 2 December 2011.  Importantly, this film coverered an issue that is often overlooked, feared and  shocking to the community -  the need for a sexual life for persons with disabilities.  This documentary follows sex worker Rachel Wotton and her clients.  Rachel displays a rare tenderness and empathy for the difficult needs of the disabled client.
