Francine Strickwerda's mother died of breast cancer when her daughter was only 7, disappearing forever into the fog of silence that surrounded the disease 30 years ago.

"The [breasts] of doom had taken my mother. Now they were after me," she says in her highly praised documentary, Busting Out.
The movie, the first by Strickwerda, is both a short course on the history and mystery of the breast and a coming-to-terms exercise for the Seattle filmmaker, still haunted and grieving all these years later.

"Strickwerda and Smith filmed people criticizing both the corporate exploitation of breast cancer's symbolic pink ribbon and hospitals that take money from the manufacturers of infant formula while offering little support for women who might want to nurse."
