Please share your opinions about the movie “Human Trafficking.”
Some questions:
What is this movie about? The title says all. It's about people who make millions of dollars by exploiting young women, children, and teenagers. It's about people who own people. It shows us the real situation in our modern and ''civilized'' society. The movie is very good, and though it's long you never get bored. Some scenes are very hard to watch but they are necessary. This movie does so much more than teach you, it demonstrates the sexual exploitation that these women and children face, the hardship they face after being manipulated or kidnapped and forced to work. It also shows that it is not an issue that only third world countries face but that it happens here, in the U.S!!!
- “Anything is better than living here”.
- “I learned my lesson.”
