Angelina Jolie Presents Inhuman Traffic - an MTV EXIT Special Part 1

Presented by Angelina Jolie, this program is a fast-moving and compelling documentary that provides an introduction to the human rights tragedy of trafficking of women and girls for sexual exploitation in Europe. Featuring Anna, a woman from Romania, who was trafficked by her neighbor to the Balkans where she was forced to be a prostitute for 2.5 years; and Tatiana, a victim who spent 6 months as a sex slave in Amsterdam after being sold by her boyfriend. Their harrowing stories are told alongside other characters in the trafficking chain, including a potential victim, a young man who pays for sex, an anti-trafficking police officer, and prevention and assistance organizations. Inhuman Traffic gives an insight into the trafficking chain and how to help break that chain. The show was produced in 2005.

[Mythofsextrafficking]

There is no evidence that they were forced.

It is very difficult to force someone to be a sex slave, they would have to have 24 hour guards posted and be watched 365 days a year, 24 hours per day. Have the threat of violence if they refused, and have no one notice and complain to the authorities or police. They would need to hide from the general public yet still manage to see customers from the general public. They do this work to make money for themselves. Where is the proof of force?

[Mythofsextrafficking]

There is hard evidence that the sex slavery/sex trafficking issue continues to report false information and is greatly exaggerated by politicians, the media, and aid groups, feminist and religious organizations that receive funds from the government, They have no evidence to back up these numbers, and no one questions them about it. Their sources have no sources, and are made up numbers. Very few real forced against their will sex slaves have been found.

@tomehr Pay for sex is not a crime! The control needs to be on the frontiers, the boarders and that's when you have corruption on a government that facilitates the entry of this women. It's a big game, like Cappichy said, a global problem, that needs to be dealed by every nation in one single way.

Its terrible and sad how this is still going on :(...especially since its reminding me of that movie which came out only like last year as well on the subject..."Taken" starring Liam Neeson. Its just terrible!

[tomehr]

Does "government" force guys at gunpoint (or however) to pay criminals to have sex with trafficking victims, Cappichy? Blaming "government" is banal and, at best, just lazy.

[Cappichy]

heh my friend, just ask yourself for a minute, can anyone do something like this that goverment doesn't know? Not just this, cuz parallel with this comes drug and weapon trafficking, etc. This is the organized crime, and there is no organized crime without political support. Intelligence services, DGS, etc logically knows this. This is a global problem.

[ellogoods]

What astonishes me is how local governments seemingly turn a blind eye to this abhorrent practice. If I were king of the world anyone dealing in trafficking especially with children would be punished severely, punishable by death.

Human trafficking is the trade of human beings and their use by criminals to make money. That could mean forcing or tricking people into prostitution, begging, or manual labour.
