Doing Money

My gosh what a horrible thing people go through. This movie is all too important and unfortunately a story that not one but 5 million girls and women can relate too. Sit your daughters, sisters and even sons down, when they are age ready and watch it. we cannot let this be an invisible problem anymore.

Based on a true story, this story is shocking in modern day UK/Eire.

A brilliant performance by all the cast, telling the story of a young Romanian woman (Ana) kidnapped from the streets of London in broad daylight and forced into the sex trade.

We all hear stories about human sex trafficking - but it doesn't always feel real. This film brings the reality to home. And it's necessarily grim viewing. Ana is a happy Romanian immigrant working in a low wage job in London. She is kidnapped and taken to Ireland and had to pay off her 'purchase price' by 'doing money' - a eumpamism for having sex with willing paying customers. It's horrible - but it demonstrates that slavery is alive and well and man (or in this case woman) can go to extreme and inhuman lengths for personal profit. Doesn't make you feel good about the world, nor should it. But it needs to be watched.

A Big Ass WTF Plot hole right at the beginning of this film. Okay wherever she's was first located in Ireland and the apartment was raided and she was arrested and jailed overnight, why did she calmly walk back to her kidnappers outside the jail? And I don't want to hear the BS about the fake threat on harming her family, when she could have told the police everything including who she worked for and where she was kidnapped from.

Now I get the first tidbit of information when she explained why she didn't scream in the car, but she did have opportunities to pop the lock on the door and caused a scene from where she was kidnapped and even in the airport.

This woman had more blown opportunities to escape and have these sex traffickers arrested and that weak "We Know your Family" threat is tired and overused.

I've just watched this powerful dramatisation of a true case of modern day sex slavery in the UK and Ireland. Unfortunately it is not a rare event. It can occur under the noses of people living in apartments or homes who may not be aware of what is going on next door to them.

Anca Dumitra plays a young Romanian woman, Ana, who is kidnapped in London and forced into sex slavery with the threat that if she doesn't comply with her abductors her mother will be killed. With two other young women she is moved around to different locations.

This is a powerful story which should awaken a desire in people to know what is really happening in their neighbourhood. Anca plays the part with such conviction that we feel affected when her humanity is being slowly taken from her by vile cowards.
