"St. Kilda means different things to different people ... for some, it means going out and having fun ... for others, it's about property values and dollars ... for me, it means Ugly-Mugs, cops, scoring drugs and it's where I always come to when I get out of jail ..."

- Gillian.

In every city around the world a 'red light' district exists.

Revolving Door is a gripping and compelling animated documentary looking at the complex issues surrounding Gillian, a Melbourne street sex worker. As Gillian's story unfolds, we discover that she is working in appalling conditions, is confronted by ever-present risk and danger whilst constantly being harassed by the police, community and even clients she services.
