In the absence of any real feminist discourse, a feminist protest group sprung up in Ukraine in 2008. Today Femen is both a tabloid favourite and a rising movement in Ukraine and abroad. By protesting bare-breasted against sexual exploitation of women, dictatorship and religion, they are making waves both in the media and society at large. UKRAINE IS NOT A BROTHEL gives a glimpse into this chaotic grassroot movement's rise to fame, and their struggles of discovering who are they are and what they want to be.
