The Stage
An underground community of sex workers scattered across the globe and rooted in their fight for justice, stand together deciding enough is enough. Twelve activists are connected by invisible threads that build the power and strength they need to make change above ground.
“Mycelial portrays the distinctiveness of individual experiences in sex work and the subterranean, subcultural and subrosa connectivity among sex workers, trans folx and black and brown communities, a pulse or ecosystem that is felt and lived but not always apparent, yet ties all struggles for justice together.” Dr Raven Bowen, CEO, National Ugly Mugs
