Proz Anthology is a collective creation by sex trade workers in Regina. Tired of the misrepresentation of their lives, they took pen in hand, then the camera, to share their stories.

The first segment presents the background context for the work. Common Weal is a community arts organization that links artists with communities who don't usually have access to the means of creating art.

The Anthology consists of three works:
1.
Death's Alley, a video poem by Daniel Still.
2.
Prairie Passions, a short drama of a back-room scne "girls on call" by Tina Hanna-Manns.
3.
Star, a self portrait by Evening Star of her life as a sex trade worker in Regina.
