Evan Grae Davis, Shadowlinefilms director has written and/or directed promotional and educational videos and video series along with producing and creating websites and various other communication tools for nearly 100 organizations during the past 18 years. The main focus of Shadow Line has been to denounce violence against women.
Their new project is called It’s a Girl!.
This documentary is a collection of interviews done in China and India, where boys are preferred over girls. The United Nations estimates as many as 200 million girls are missing in the world today because of this so-called “gendercide”.
Girls who survive infancy are often subject to neglect, and many grow up to face extreme violence and even death at the hands of their own husbands or other family members.
The war against girls is rooted in centuries-old tradition and sustained by deeply ingrained cultural dynamics which, in combination with government policies, accelerate the elimination of girls.
Shot on location in India and China, It’s a Girl! explores the issue. It asks why this is happening, and why so little is being done to save girls and women.
The film tells the stories of abandoned and trafficked girls, of women who suffer extreme dowry-related violence, of brave mothers fighting to save their daughters’ lives, and of other mothers who would kill for a son. Global experts and grassroots activists put the stories in context and advocate different paths towards change, while collectively lamenting the lack of any truly effective action against this injustice.
Currently in post-production, It’s a Girl! is scheduled for an early 2012 release.

The content requires a very strong stomach to watch. But an even stronger to film and produce. Kudos to Mr. Davis for being so brave as not only to denounce, but also prove what sex-selection abortions are doing to Asia, and ultimately, what will happen to us because of this.
No new taxes?
It is Obama.
Fire for effect!
Inferior culture combined with evil government will lead to behaviors such as these.
Fire when ready.........
Hope and Change
Dinner is ready! (If you are standing between M. Obama and the table).
The real legacy of Abortion. I hope the FemiNazi's are proud.
Or "Cameras are rolling!" If you are standing between the cameras and Chuckie Schumer.
but, but, but their culture is equal to ours and must be celebrated for their diversity.
Why is this a problem?
Religion of Peace.
“Or “Cameras are rolling!” If you are standing between the cameras and Chuckie Schumer.”
Geez, now that you mention it, Chuckie, Franken and Dodd (the unholy trinity) have been keeping a pretty low profile lately, huh?
Shudder to think what these bastards are hatching.
I like to think they're trying to come up with a way of replacing of Zero for election 2012.

Muslims are anti-woman but are not aborters. They have a high birth rate and will inherite the World.
Not even Roman Catholics are having large families any more.
“United Nations estimates as many as 200 million girls are missing in the world today because of this so-called “gendercide”.
No matter how bad it is for girls world wide, in Muslim countries that goes double... it must be absolute hell on earth. It would almost be a mercy for girl children to ‘go missing’ in a Muslim country
‘Mom’s new boyfriend.’
