Really sad to watch but well executed documentary. I didn't know about any of this in Argentina. What went on then is still occurring today whether prostitution is legal or illegal...the whole industry is immoral and corrupt and not a victimless crime. No woman (or man) wants to be trafficked in order to barely survive. The only thing that would have made the movie better is if they tried to follow up what happened to the pimps after they got arrested. Many were sent back to Europe so I imagine they were murdered during the Holocaust. The majority however I believed stayed in Argentina. Anyway the documentary gave a good explanation of why the Jewish community in Argentina tries to forget about it.... Many people who profited from it have families who never knew what their ancestors did, likewise the women who were trafficked never wanted to let people know what they went through. There was definitely tension at the end when one man being interviewed got into it with the interviewer on what the point was to expose what happened and he made valid points. What is shameful though to me is how no organizations are willing to take care of the cemetery for these women.
