Pretty Baby

Hattie, a prostitute, lives in New Orleans’ red light district Storyville with Violet, her 12-year-old daughter, and works in Madame Nell’s fancy brothel. Ernest J. Bellocq, a photographer who is a frequent visitor to the whorehouse and an attractive person for Hallie and Violet, has a crush on Violet. Madame Nell sells Violet her virginity, and the lucky winner gets to stay the night with Violet. Hattie then marries a rich client, and she moves to Saint Louis. Violet remains alone in the brothel. Violet marries Bellocq, and they move to Bellocq’s house. Hattie arrives at Bellocq’s home with the intent to bring Violet along, having overcome her past. –Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
