Based on the true story of US Federal Agent Tim Ballard this film tackles one of the most obscene problems of our time.
Director and Co-writer Alejandro Monteverde takes is into the dark world of child sex trafficking with a sometimes confronting but overall gentle hand, ensuring graphic imagery is not so overt as to take away from what is ultimately a story of survival for many of these young children. It does seem concerning that a film of this stature does not gain Oscar attention and that Disney delayed its release by 3 years. Produced by Mel Gibson this story should have people rise up across the globe, but unfortunately that is not the case.
