What can I say about this independent gem. Yes, it's a gem because you really got into the life of the 15 year old girl. Her life is just one piece of trash. Growing up with her mother isn't fun. Mother has no money so prostitution is the only remedy to earn money.

The girl has to wait in the car for her mother while she's doing it so slowly she also gets into the world of selling your body. Jessica Taylor Haid playing the 15 year old prostitute gives an excellent performance. It's was her first flick and to do all this stuff you see a big thumb up. There's a lot of nudity going on and some will be offended by it because she's fifteen of course.

Not a happy movie after all and shows the life of so many youth in the USA. No work is no money is no place to stay. Great performances, good filming and editing, okay there's a continuity fault on the beach with the girl her socks but hey. If that's all...if you find this and can stand sad stories then pick it up.

When I saw this movie on amazon, I assumed it was a soft-core porn flick, but then the film starts with the messaged about how teen girls are exploited for sex. that really ruin my high.

The movie tries to cover everything you ever herd about teen prostitution and role it up in one girl, and it becomes a series of adventures in her life. Semi episodic going from one segment to another, but it does help to get the message across.

It is a realistic story about survival trying to be very leveled in telling us what it takes to be a girl in this position.

Yet still, the opening tiled message does help to get me in the tone of the drama this is suppose to be, the movie still kinda feels like a soft-core porn. It never ever gets out of that mood.

For me it does not make this an easier pill to shallow. In fact it does what a work of art should do...it makes me think, about the young girls who go into porn and I've seen at strip clubs and what actually got them there.

So, great film to watch, with a great message, unless your one of those guys who lives at the strip club, than this might mess up your head a little (or at lease I hope it does).

1st off, the young girl main character is very pretty, which doesn't hurt. The acting by everyone is decent and the characters and situations seem realistic. Location shooting is one of the strongest aspects of this film. However, I wasn't quite satisfied. If it somehow went deeper I would have given it one or two more stars.

Don't you love being surprised by a film in a good way. Usually this happens to our dismay and we end up losing 90 to 150 mins. Of our life we'll never get back again. But when this happens in a good way you feel happy for the actors, writers, directors and producers etc. who all pitched in to make an amazing film.

Nowhereland aka. Girl lost is just that, A story told without apologizing for it's incredible reality of an underaged female teen coerced into prostitution. Purely brilliant cinematography this independent film packs a punch on all fronts. I sometimes felt as though I was merely a fly on the wall watching a real life couple. Not to say It was a reality show type of setting I am just stating how authentic some scenes were set up to be. It's the kind of film that deeply pulls on your heart strings as you watch it by being excruciatingly sad while simultaneously being entertaining.

Acting, pace, On camera charisma was all above par. And for that reason I give this movie a GREAT MOVIE rating. Please you should sit down and make some time to watch this film it is truly a good film you won't be disappointed.

Robin Bain the actress, writer and producer of this film should be extremely proud.

Strange tale of a hooker mother training her teenage daughter to the trade. A mother and daughter live together on their own. They barely make it from motel to motel, month to month. They are always having to compromise to live. It's a bleak story about the life one finds oneself in when one surrounds oneself with drugging and turning tricks. I know it might LOOK like this is a flick about Jessica Taylor Haid's body, but it's more than that.
