08/17/2018 I am very happy to see this documentary because it is bringing much needed attention to a huge problem that receives so little attention. It has some great aspects to it, most notably the honesty of John King. It also gets across what a widespread problem this is. It lacked depth when addressing the root causes of the problem as well as the solutions. When discussing sex trafficking in America, there was no mention of illegal immigration and how traffickers use it to get kids. They talked about poverty and how desperate parents would sell their kids, but didn't say that desperate parents will all hand their kids to the cartel to get them to America. The movie brought up Afghanistan and how 95% of boys were molested in order to break them and make them soldiers, but it didn't take the additional step to name what kind of soldiers they are being groomed to be. The solutions were basically to protest and spread the word. These don't address the real problems. The quality was also not very high. That said, I recommend watching the movie as an introduction to the issue. I hope that there will be more documentaries made about this issue that delve deeper into causes and solutions.

But if you feel protective of children, babies, any human that is young and dependent upon adults for their safety and well-being, then this movie is for you. If you're squeamish about the details of what happens to children who are used in the most vile ways to make money every day 24/7, but can't quite open your eyes to the reality of it .. but still want to help .. then you then you need to get over it and view this documentary. This film tells you what is happening, by those who have had it happen to them, those who have seen it happen to people they know, those who are fighting to stop it, and those who have done it. This film begins with defining for you what sex-trafficking is in a thoughtful, factual, manner that doesn't sugar-coat, doesn't over-dramatize, by people who truly want to end this. It concludes with several points on how you can help, in a way that you feel that you can. If you truly want to end the trafficking of boys and girls for sex, squeamish or not, this film is for you.
