Greenlit: Stacey Dooley: No Place To Be A Woman, BBC3

Stacey Dooley: No Place To Be A Woman w/t  (2 x 60′) – Stacey Dooley travels to two of the worst countries in the world to be a woman to investigate why young women there live in such dangerous, desperate and degrading conditions.

In the first film, Stacey travels to the Philippines which is becoming the world capital of the cybersex industry. Here, girls, who are rarely let out and are often underage, must perform on webcams and be photographed for a global online audience, including many men from the UK.

In the second film, Stacey travels to Honduras, currently the country with the highest murder rate for young women. A woman is murdered every 13 hours and, as Stacey discovers, very little is being done to address it. She meets some of the young women who’ve had enough and are campaigning for change, she spends a night with a group of female students as they try to evade the police and put up posters demanding more rights for women.
