01/24/2013 Should be mandatory viewing for everyone. Let me just quibble with the synopsis: saying "underage prostitution" makes it sound like underage prostitution is a subset of prostitution when, in fact, the average age of entry into prostitution in the United States is thirteen, so it is, in practice, impossible to separate out some kind of safe, consent-filled "adult prostitution". Every sex worker should be assumed to be a victim of human trafficking and sexual, physical, and emotional abuse until proven otherwise. This is a film about prostitution, period.

See more 01/27/2011 I gave it 3 stars because it was disturbing to me throughout the whole documentary. I don't like being constantly disturbed throughout a whole movie. See more 01/19/2011 This documentary only received two and half stars on Netflix. It should have received more for the attention it brings to the sex trafficking of teenage girls that happens here, in our own city. Also captures the amazingly selfless efforts of the founder of Gems, who uses every resource possible to help rehabilitate the young girls who decide to leave prostitution and their pimps who have brainwashed them for years. Very interesting doc. Sometimes hard to watch because it's very real. Very sad and true. See more 01/19/2011 This is way better than Born Into Brothels, which seems like the most obvious point of comparison. And it's very, very good at putting a face on a problem, and even at offering something like a solution. See more Read all reviews
