“I was married, I had three boys… yeah. And then this… heroin won” - Fiona - Working The Streets
SYNOPSIS
The Sex Business is a 3-part series that upends the clichés and misconceptions of the sex industry by getting those at the very heart of it to tell their stories, in their own words.
‘Porn Stars’ takes a full frontal look at both the personal and professional lives of some of Britain’s biggest and aspiring adult entertainers. ‘Working From Home’ follows the story of two escorts and a dominatrix who view sex work as a choice and provide their services willingly, from the comfort of their own homes; while ‘Working The Streets’ offers a sobering and poignant look at the least glamourous end of the nation’s sex industry. Six women across the country reveal the vicious cycle of having to find punters to help them fund their drug addictions or simply put food on the table each night.
Across this series these men and women offer unprecedented access to their world, documenting the reality of what it really means to market, sell and buy sex in the UK.
