Film and Debate at the Barbican Centre: Lilya 4-Ever
Tuesday 29 April, 7.30pm
Lukas Moodysson's latest film, Lilya 4-Ever, is the relentless and stark
story of a Russian girl abandoned by her mother. Lilya's attempts at
survival through prostitution (and worse) raise tough questions about the
nature of power in contemporary Europe.
The film screening will be followed by a discussion on child prostitution
and trafficking with Liz Kelly, Director of London Metropolitan University's
Child and Woman Abuse Studies Unit, Diana Mills, Coordinator of Asylum Aid,
and Polly Toynbee, political columnist at The Guardian.
Tickets cost £7 (£5.50 concessions). For up to date information on speakers
and to book, call the Barbican Box Office on 020 7638 8891 or visit
