    Storyline

    Edit
    Pursuit of Freedom is inspired by the true story of a Ukrainian woman who was abducted in the night by Russian gangsters, torn from her three small children, and sold into trafficking after her husband was unable to pay his gambling debts. After living in a pitch dark, concrete prison for three years, she grew so ill that her captors dumped her body in the street. She awoke up from a coma in a hospital, where a compassionate nurse befriended her, and joined her in the miraculous search for her missing children.
