Sex Slaves

"Sex Slaves" is a PBS documentary that exposes the global sex trade business in the former Soviet Bloc. Frontline takes viewers into the shadowy, multi-billion dollar world of sex trafficking. This investigation puts a human face on this inhumane contemporary issue. From the villages of Moldova and Ukraine, to underground brothels and discotheques in Turkey where many women are trafficked and forced into prostitution, we witness first-hand the brutal world of white sex slavery. This film discusses how five women from the struggling countries of Eastern Europe were tricked into sexual slavery, raped, beaten by traffickers and pimps, forced to work to turn a profit -- and finally escaped. Plus, a convicted Ukrainian sex trafficker talks about the multibillion dollar sex trade business, and why he sold an acquaintance for $1,000. The Frontline crew follows one woman's husband as he travels to Turkey to find and rescue his wife.
