Warte Mal!

Everywoman

Available for over a year

Prostitution has taken off in the Czech Republic since 1989, and in some border towns, almost every building is a brothel. Swedish artist Ann-Sofi Siden made a study of this and turned it into an artistic installation, Warte Mal! She talks about her experience of watching the women, pimps and clients. Also on the programme: The trials faced by the lone woman farmer in Outback Australia. Plus, why we've been doing our nails for 5,000 years.
