About the Film

What is human trafficking?

We intervene, prevent, advocate, and disrupt sex trafficking and exploitation. Since freedom and exploitation look different in every region, so does our strategy. Our global network understands the vulnerabilities of sex trafficking and exploitation, which makes the network effective at comprehensively combatting the issue.

What is sex trafficking?

Human Trafficking is the abuse of men, women, and children for profit; it is the use of force, fraud, or coercion to compel a person into commercial sex or labor.Worldwide, human trafficking is the fastest-growing criminal enterprise, generating $150 billion in illegal profit. That’s more profit than Mcdonald's, PepsiCo, and Disney combined.

Where does sex trafficking happen?

Sex trafficking is when someone uses force, lies, or intimidation to cause another person to perform a commercial sex act.

Sex trafficking is the practice of illegally transporting people from one country or area to another for the purpose of sexual exploitation.

It is the act of profiting from the exploitation of men, women, and children through prostitution, pornography, public or private sexual exhibition, sex tourism, public or private exhibitions of a sexual nature, sex tourism or any other paid sexual activity.

Who is affected by human trafficking?

We believe that everyone is affected by trafficking. Trafficking affects communities and individuals, and it ultimately affects us all because we can all feel the impact in one way or another. If one is not free, then none of us are free.

What is commercial sexual exploitation?

Commercial Sexual Exploitation (CSE) is a phrase similar to sex trafficking and is used globally to describe trafficking crimes where the primary form of forced labor is in sexual services.

Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children (CSEC) specifically applies the conditions of CSE to people under the age of 18.

Exploiters take advantage of differences in age, race, gender, sexual orientation, or social and economic power to sexually exploit more vulnerable people. Commercial sex markets—prostitution, pornography, sugaring, sex tourism, etc—were built upon and perpetuate inequality and violence against our most marginalized populations.

Who is targeted?

Traffickers target the vulnerable and thrive in vulnerabilities such as youth, political instability, conflict, systematic discrimination, poverty, prior victimization such as child sexual abuse or trauma, substance abuse, lack of housing, lack of education, generational exploitation, migrants, and racism.
