Trade will be on theaters on September 21. This (hopefully) is going to be an interesting movie. I saw the trailer yesterday, and if the movie lives up to it, it will portrait a horrible, dark reality, one that has been ignored by mass media: sex slavery. In order to change this terrible reality, people (the general public) must be aware of it.

I think it's good that somebody had the guts to bring this into light, to talk about sex traffic openly, with the truth. Let's hope this movie helps all the little girls who are victims of this heinous trade.

Synopsis:

When 13-year-old Adriana (Paulina Gaitan) is kidnapped by sex traffickers in Mexico City, her 17-year-old brother, Jorge (Cesar Ramos), sets off on a desperate mission to save her.

Trapped by an underground network of international thugs who earn millions exploiting their human cargo, Adriana's only friend throughout her ordeal is Veronica (Alicja Bachleda), a young Polish woman captured by the same criminal gang. As Jorge dodges overwhelming obstacles to track the girl's abductors, he meets Ray (Kevin Kline), a Texas cop whose own family loss leads him to become an ally. From the barrios of Mexico City and the treacherous Rio Grande border, to a secret Internet sex slave auction and a tense confrontation at a stash house in suburban New Jersey, Ray and Jorge forge a close bond as they frantically pursue Adriana's kidnappers before she is sold and disappears into a brutal underworld from which few victims ever return.
