Anonymously Yours

Anonymously Yours
(87 minutes) Burma/Thailand/USA
Director: Gayle Ferraro
Producer: SAA


Description:

Deep in the uncharted world of sex trafficking in Southeast Asia, four women's strikingly different stories are pieced together to reveal an institution that enslaves as many as forty million women worldwide. Through their shocking, video-taped testimonies, Burmese prostitutes initiate Western audiences to the widespread corruption and staggering poverty that are the status quo in much of the world, and the primary causes behind the fastest-growing industry on earth.
