A List of Films about Human Trafficking and Commercial Sexual Exploitation
Submitted: 6/12/2008

Girl Trafficking. Manushi for Sustainable Development. 1994. Trafficked from the rural areas of Nepal into India for commercial sexual exploitation, this documentary-drama outlines the very real ordeal of many young girls, as well as the social ostracization they face with their resulting HIV/AIDS infection.

Highway to Hell. Meera Dewan and Niraja Rao. 2000. Exploring the sex trafficking trade between Nepal and India, this documentary also takes on the unique perspectives of male clients in addition to those of the trafficked girls and their families (38 minutes).

Trading Women. David A. Feingold. Trading Women documents the sex trafficking trade in China, Thailand, and Burma, depicted as not just a local, but international problem (narrated by Angelina Jolie).

The Day My God Died. Andrew Levine. 2003. The Day My God Died tells the story of the countless girls sold into the sex trade in Bombay, the brave souls working to defend them (55 minutes).

Born Into Brothels. Zana Briski, Ross Kauffman. 2004. Taking on a very different vantage point than most films on the subject, Briski and Kauffman’s 85-minute documentary focuses not on the prostitutes in India, but their children.

Bangkok Girl. Jordan Clark. 2005. 19-year-old Pla tells of her experience managing to avoid prostitution while working in a bar in Thailand since the age of 13, and how with time she will inevitably be forced into the trade (42 minutes).
