After his 13-year-old sister is abducted by sex traffickers, a determined Mexican teen travels from the barrios of Mexico City to a run-down stash house in New Jersey in a desperate attempt to rescue the frightened girl before she is swallowed whole by one of the criminal underworld's darkest secrets. Jorge's (Cesar Ramos) adolescent sister, Adriana (Paulina Gaitan), has been kidnapped and thrust into a lucrative underground trade in which young girls are bought and sold to the highest bidder. Now, as the terrified youngster is herded through a complex network of underground tunnels leading into the United States, her only ally is a Polish woman named Veronica (Alicja Bachleda), who has been tricked into the trade by the same nefarious gang. After circumventing immigration officers and eventually working his way across the border, the desperate Jorge comes into contact with a Texas lawman named Ray (Kevin Kline), whose own devastating personal loss to sex traffickers causes him to join the search for Adriana. In the dark days that follow, Jorge and Ray form a close bond as they witness the horrors of a secret Internet sex slave auction and discover just how far the depths of human depravity can plunge while attempting to maintain hope that brother and sister will one day be reunited. In the world of international sex trafficking, however, innocent victims disappear without a trace every day and few who fall prey to these reprehensible predators are ever seen again. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    This movie portrays an important issue that most people don't realize is occurring in society today. It provides the statistic which indicate that every year over 1 million people are trafficked across international borders against their will. The movie "Human Trafficking" deals with this issue more extensively and shows women and young girls being kidnapped or conned into prostitution throughout various regions throughout the world. Although the contents of this film are upsetting, I feel that it is an important movie to watch. The film truly opens your eyes to the shocking reality that human trafficking is not something that just occurs in Eastern Europe or South America, but it occurs in the United States, as well. I would definitely recommend this film, it was extremely well done.

    This was a great movie. I loved it and hated it. The fact that these events actually take place on a daily in this world sickens me. I recommend this for adults only as there are some very inappropriate scenes (obviously!).
