Finley Blake supports herself by performing live online erotic webcam shows. Because of this, her young son was taken from her and she is desperately trying to get him back. She is 33 years old and alone, with only her cat and the rats that inhabit her house in Austin, Texas. The film captures several ordinary days of her life – days in which she is so terribly alone yet still surrounded by people. She lives her life through computer monitors, isolated from the outside world. Although this is an observational documentary, its composition, often alternating image sizes, helps make the film’s pace even more dynamic. (Ji.hlava International Documentary Film Festival)

A small-scale documentary film about a girl who took up the career of an internet and phone whore. The moments that are interesting for the viewer represent standard routine for the protagonist. And once this routine is over, all that’s left is loneliness and sadness that’s every now and then brushed up by the court battle for her son and the odd Skype conversation. It’s interesting from the point of view of the shift of moral values, but other than that this flick isn’t special in any other way.
