Trafficked is a harrowing and powerful documentary that sheds light on the underreported and ignored crime of sex trafficking in Australia. Investigative journalist Nick McKenzie, who previously reported on the same issue, receives a tip about a brothel in South Melbourne that appears to be involved in trafficking Asian women.
The film follows Nick as he goes undercover to gather evidence and confront the players involved in the trafficking ring. He meets with survivors who share their heartbreaking stories of being forced into prostitution and the violence and abuse they endured. Nick also uncovers evidence of corruption and complicity within government agencies and law enforcement, which have allowed this crime to continue to flourish.
Trafficked is a raw and gritty film that exposes the reality of sex trafficking in Australia, a problem that is often ignored or downplayed by society and the media. It is a call to action for the government and the public to recognize the severity of the issue and take action to put an end to this modern-day slavery.
