Escortes(2016)

Escortes is a documentary series that pulls back the curtain on Quebec's escort industry through the voices of those working within it. More than twenty sex workers share their personal stories, motivations, and the realities of their profession. The series captures candid accounts of client encounters, ranging from the mundane to the bizarre and unsettling. Director Valérie Blais presents an unflinching look at a largely hidden world, letting the escorts themselves define their experiences rather than imposing judgment. The documentary balances intimate interviews with broader social context, exploring why people enter the profession and how they navigate its complexities. Escortes treats its subjects with dignity while remaining honest about the challenges, dangers, and unexpected moments that define their daily work.
