Jason Pamer and Eric Esau have done a superb job of capturing the dark essence of the sex- trade without assaulting the senses of the viewers. Their work reveals the insidious manipulation that continues to prey upon vulnerable children and youth. One cannot view this film without evaluating one's complacency, complicity, or perspective toward modern-day slavery. The sensitivity in which survivors were interviewed speaks to the changing perspective of society and law enforcement toward victims of human trafficking. Trafficking victims are seen as people in need of the Law's protective arm rather than the Law's indictment. One viewer responded, "I walked away wanting to express mercy toward the survivors and pray that justice would have its way with their abusers."
