You might ask: why watch the BrokenSilenze cut instead of waiting for the official trailer? Because the official trailer is marketing. BrokenSilenze is anthropology.

In Part 1 of the Baddies Midwest Auditions, BrokenSilenze focuses on the rejects. These are the women too unhinged for even Baddies.
