To promote its upcoming annual Breast Fest film festival, which is dedicated to breast cancer awareness, Toronto-based Rethink Breast Cancer decided to create a short film of their own – a musical. It tells the story of a young breast cancer survivor out to find a bra. At first she’s a little apprehensive and frustrated with how her search is faring, but once she finds a bra she likes and that tops up her confidence, well, the song and dance number pretty much explains how she feels about it. The short is part of a pro-bono campaign that was developed for Rethink Breast Cancer by Toronto-based The Hive.
