DIRECTOR LOOKING FOR SINGLE MOTHERS FOR A SOCIAL DOCUMENTARY

saragrimaldi

Hello,
I'm an Italian director and I'm preparing a documentary about the life of single mothers in 4 European countries (ideally Italy, France, UK, Spain). I'd like to show how is difficult for a woman to grow up a child all alone, but also the economical possibility that every country gives to single mothers (showing in particular the difference of state benefits existing in these 4 countries even if they are all part of Europe). But I'd like also to tell the story of 4 women who have reached a sort of serenity and have achieved their dreams, despite the troubles they had to face.
I live in Paris and so I have already found someone here who can tell me her story and the same has happened in Italy. But I'm meeting some problems to find someone in UK and I have also some difficulties to understand the English system of benefits for single mothers. That's why I'm writing this post, because I hope that someone could help me to carry on my project, pointing out someone who could be interested to participate or an association which could give me an efficient support.

Thank you for your time and sorry for my very bad English.
