With 45 million sex trafficking victims worldwide, only 1% manage to escape or be rescued. SURVIVING SEX TRAFFICKING examines the ongoing struggles of those 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.
Jain monk Sadhvi Siddhali Shree, the filmmaker behind the award-winning documentary Stopping Traffic uncovers the depth of pain felt by survivors as well as if and how they can truly recover. Through conversations with victims and trips to shelters around the world, SURVIVING SEX TRAFFICKING reveals their stories and how they escaped, how they continue to survive, and how they live day to day with the repressed trauma from the horrific events they experienced.
Shree directed and produced the film, with Sadhvi Anubhuti co-producing. Executive producers include Alyssa Milano, Jeannie Mai and Jeezy.
Join us on a journey around the world to find heroes who have the courage to tell their story and fight for change. We will also have a panel discussion for you to ask questions and dialogue with those in the anti-trafficking movement.
Our hope with “Surviving Sex Trafficking” is that in seeing what these amazing survivors have done and how they have fought to shed the stigma, it may help anyone who has suffered to do the same.
