This week the Texas Freedom Network Student Chapters at Texas State, University of Texas San Antonio, and University of Texas Austin hosted free, on-campus, documentary screenings of the award winning film, Daddy I Do. The very talented and passionate director, Cassie Jaye of Jayebird Productions, was kind enough to attend all three events and answer questions after the film played. Daddy I Do began as a documentary looking into the new phenomenon of "Purity Balls," where a young girl exchanges vows with her father in a wedding like ceremony, promising to stay "pure" and to "save" herself for marriage, and turned into a documentary about abstinence programs and the failure to effectively control unintended teen pregnancy. The film does an excellent job at allowing both sides of the discussion argue their case and leaving the viewer to come to their own conclusions, for more information about the award winning documentary go here! Below are some pictures from the successful events, enjoy!
