Editorial Reviews

This DVD is disencoded & plays in ALL regions. When his friend loses her breast to cancer at age 32, fashion photographer, David Jay deals with it the only way he knows how, by taking her picture. The implications are wider reaching than he ever imagined. "Baring it All" follows David Jay on an excursion from his life as fashion photographer into a world of young women scarred by breast cancer. Determined to restore their faith in life and their own beauty, Jay creates a photographic series of young survivors, aged 18 to 35. The portraits are beautiful yet challenging. The result is cathartic and empowering.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unexpected and inspiring June 30, 2011

By Christina

A refreshing step away from pink ribbon culture that shows real young women dealing with cancer who have decided to show their scars to the world. The video description is slightly misleading in that breast cancer is not the only cancer represented -- while three of the young women tackled breast cancer as their primary malignancy, the fourth had ovarian cancer and elected to have the mastectomy to lessen her future cancer risks. An interesting photography project and a thought-provoking documentary.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning & Powerful - A Must See June 15, 2012

By Trista Hendren

I am in love with this documentary. Such an important look at our assumptions about beauty and being a woman. Reminded me of the Norweigian project, Det Dobbelte Kyss by Ellen Francke from many years ago. A must see for every American woman.

My Name is Brigitte, I live in Germany and I had breast cancer and a mastectomy in 2010.
The DVD treats the subject breast cancer in a very sympathetical way and each of the womens' story reflects a part of my own cancer history, cancer experience and efforts to survive.Thanks to the women all over the world living day by day with the diagnosis cancer and what this means for themthelves,their families and friends. Most of all I want to thank the women of the SCAR Project and the wonderful photographer David Jay. The DVD is very impressive!
