Storyline
| Plot Summary |
New Mexico, 1994. While on a night out with a friend, the guileless eighteen-year-old Korean-American, Hyun Jae, finds herself drugged, tape-gagged, and kidnapped after accepting a drink from a perfect stranger at a bar. Now, a new name and an ugly reality await the hapless girl, who is kept alive to serve one purpose only: to have sex with strangers. As Hyun Jae is dragged into a cruel, pitiless world of prostitution and violence, frequented by corrupt policemen, addicts and drug dealers, the resilient teenage captive must do everything in her power to stay alive. However, is there an escape from the dark den of sin? Written by Nick Riganas |

Did You Know?
| Trivia | In 2014, two years after the film's release, the anti-trafficking charity Breaking Out announced it had investigated the claims of Chong Kim, whose story the film is based on. It claims it debunked her stories as false, though it did not publicly release the information that led them to this conclusion. See more » |
