Description
(Producer) This documentary follows a group of women, all breast cancer activists who are fighting or have survived the disease, who are on a personal mission to unearth the causes of breast cancer. Incorporates interviews with prominent scientists, documentary footage from high cancer rate areas, and investigates women's personal battles to stay healthy.
Description
Rachel's Daughters, the first feature length film to be made about the causes of breast cancer, is an investigative documentary with a difference. Eight women living with breast cancer act as detectives, traveling across the country interviewing scientists and researchers about the possible causes of the disease. These interviews are woven together with historical footage, short dramatizations and emotional visualizations, creating an engaging detective story.
