I am a Female Bodyguard

Can female bodyguards keep you safe?

Chances are if you picture a bodyguard, it’s going to be an image of a big guy in a black suit. However, more and more clients are hiring women bodyguards. They are trained and agile. Female bodyguards aren’t apparent security and don’t draw attention to a person who is being protected.

The documentary features interviews with female bodyguards from Russia and Egypt. They let us inside the life of personal protection and tell us why they’ve chosen a non-traditional career path. On the other side are male sceptics, who claim women aren’t fit for the profession.
