Sometimes it takes provocation to make people aware of the grievances in society and to stir them up. With the campaign “Looking for an internship in a brothel?” We succeeded in doing that.
Together with Frauenzentrale Zürich, we drew attention to the exploitation in prostitution in October 2024. With the “internship advertisement” in the “La Perte” brothel, the campaign did not offer a real job, but it did show real conditions. The protagonist of the video talks about her daily tasks and shows a typical day in a brothel. The short film invites you to rethink the system of prostitution and to recognize the inhumane conditions that women are exposed to on a daily basis.
The videos have attracted attention across the country. They made it clear that prostitution is not a free choice. Prostitution is a form of exploitation. Prostitution is violence against women.
Together with the Zurich Women's Center, we are calling for a realignment of Swiss prostitution policy: The cycle of exploitation must be ended and
Women in prostitution should receive the support they need. You have — just like everyone else — the right to a self-determined life
without sexual violence.
