Goodbye Breasts! An award-winning feature documentary.

After a double mastectomy, filmmaker Joanna Callaghan embarks on a creative journey of self-recovery—building a giant inflatable breast, choreographing a post-op dance routine, and hosting a Goodbye Breasts! party—as she learns to embrace her new body and find joy in life after cancer.

The film is going on a national tour and will screen at Duke’s Picturehouse, Komedia, Brighton, with Q & A hosted by Sussex-based oncologist and cancer researcher Richard Simcock on the 14th April.
