NOTES TO MY FATHER

VR Experience

2017

USA/UK

Notes To My Father  is a story of the love, grief and reconciliation, between a survivor of child trafficking and her father.

Flooded by past memories of an adolescence spent in an Indian brothel, Ramadevi pens a letter to her father, who unintentionally played a role in his daughter’s trauma. Though close now; they have never discussed what happened to her as a teenager. Through a touching letter, Ramadevi reaches out to her father. She wants to address and heal the silence between them, in the hope that her own young daughter, is saved from a similar fate.

Notes To My Father is a virtual reality experience which uses a mix of verbatim theatre and documentary storytelling techniques. Inspired by conversations with real survivors of trafficking, the lead protagonists are played by a survivor and her father. The film touches on memory and trauma and how these can shape rather than define our lives. It is ultimately a story of survival and an ode to resilience and hope. Notes To My Father is the worlds first live action 360 documentary on sex trafficking.
