BREEZY is a hybrid documentary feature about Brenda Myers-Powell, whose extraordinary journey took her from 25 years in prostitution all the way to the White House. 

The film is a deeply personal, character-driven testament to resilience and transformation, offering a unique perspective on street crime, the drug epidemic and the underground entertainment scene.

For more than two decades Brenda was known on the streets as “Breezy.” But it was more than a name: A mask. A shield. A way to survive.

In an unfiltered cinematic journey through her past, Brenda reveals how she was groomed and exploited as a young girl into the world of prostitution and street crime – a world that nearly destroyed her, but also shaped the inspiring woman and leading advocate she is today.
