Linda Thompson never imagined she’d be homeless. But when her partner walked into their house in Brighton and said their money was gone, her life started to unravel.
Linda Thompson had worked all her life and was blindsided when her partner came home one day to their house in Brighton and said they had no more money.
Thomson spent three years making the documentary, and said she related to each of the film’s subjects. “I thought if I could get someone incredibly sort of feminist and young and youthful and sexy and Australian they’d pay attention,” she says. Melbourne Lord Mayor Sally Capp also appears in the documentary. She said nobody should have to wonder where they will sleep at night.Linda Thompson will see the documentary she is featured in for the first time on Wednesday. While being part of the film brought back some of her traumas, she said she was determined to get a message out to other women.
