Marjorie

Phase I of this study collected the stories of older women who are victims-survivors of domestic abuse.  A script was written using blended content from these stories and with the help of a brilliant actor, the script was turned into a short but powerful monologue.  The film was then played to a range of service providers across several focus groups during phase II of the study.    

This is the story of Marjorie, a 73 year-old victim-survivor of domestic abuse.  

Captions are available.
