Description
10 years ago, amateur photographer and school bus driver Cynthia Stewart was arrested for trying to develop photographs of her eight year-old daughter, Nora - in two of which she was in the shower. This heart wrenching story brilliantly probes the many questions raised about when a photograph of a naked child crosses the line from innocent family photographs to child pornography. Poet Lynn Powell was a neighbour of Cynthia's and beautifully relays the traumatic events that threatened an ordinary, innocent family.
