Films about Human Trafficking and Modern-Day Slavery

“Nefarious, Merchant of Souls, is a hard-hitting documentary that exposes the disturbing trends in modern sex slavery. From the very first scene, Nefarious ushers you into the nightmare of sex slavery that hundreds of thousands experience daily.”

“Based on the book Not for Sale by David Batstone, this DVD covers what modern day abolitionists are doing to fight the rampant terrors of human trafficking in the US and abroad.”

“Filmed on five continents over a period of four years, Not My Life unflinchingly, but with enormous dignity and compassion, depicts the unspeakable practices of a multi-billion dollar global industry whose profits, as the film’s narration says, ‘are built on the backs and in the beds of our planet’s youth.'”

“As nations around the globe attempt to fight sex trafficking, many consider legalizing prostitution. Two filmmakers travel across ten countries to explore the issue, attempting to answer the question: ‘How can we prevent sexual exploitation before it happens in the first place?’ Though governments are getting better at prosecuting traffickers and providing aftercare to victims, it is time we begin to ask the question of what lies at the root.”

“Sex+Money: A National Search for Human Worth is a documentary about domestic minor sex trafficking and the modern-day abolitionist movement fighting to stop it.”

“[A]n exposé of the commercial sexual exploitation of girls in New York City as they are sold on the streets by pimps and treated as adult criminals by police. The film follows barely adolescent girls . . . as they seek to exit the commercial sex industry.”
