Overview:
Human trafficking is a crime of exploitation, that harms the well-being of individuals and communities everywhere. There are an estimated 24.9 million victims worldwide at any given time. Sex trafficking is a worldwide epidemic, a tragedy that affects women, men and children. In this eye-opening viewing of Surviving Sex Trafficking, participants will learn about the ongoing struggles of survivors as they desperately fight to break free of their past, heal their bodies and minds, reconnect with a world of hope, and reclaim their lost humanity. The documentary follows the personal stories of survivors, allowing participants to see an inside view of the world of trafficking from the perspective of a survivor.
