There’s a worldwide crisis that’s taking place right now and has been taking place for years. We may be ignorant to it or know about it and pay it little attention. I’m talking about the issue of slavery and human trafficking. One of the main reasons humans are trafficked today is for sex. People are being bought and sold by brokers and rented out by the hour to customers throughout the world. It’s a worldwide crisis that affects Korea, Canada, USA, Europe and countless other countries.
On Friday, I had the privilege to attend the world premiere of the documentary Nefarious: Merchant of Souls here in Seoul. It’s new documentary that investigates the critical human rights issue of women, teenage girls and even young girls who are being bought, sold, kidnapped and exported throughout the world for sexual purposes. This documentary goes to 4 different continents and interviews sex slaves, pimps, traffickers and the experts and the NGO workers working to free them.
Nefarious: Merchant of Souls
This is one of the most important documentaries I have ever seen. I encourage you to find out where it is screening and go check it out. If it is not showing in a place near you, order the DVD online when it becomes available. It’s a must-see movie that will educate about this important issue and challenge you to do something about it.
Human trafficking is a worldwide issue that affects Bangkok, Thailand and Toronto, Canada and many cities in between. Women are being bought and sold for sex right now in many different parts of the world. Don’t just sit idly by, watch this documentary and get involved in the fight.
