I Am Jane Doe

I just watched this documentary on Netflix and I had to write something about it. The subject matter made me sick to my stomach, but THIS FILM NEEDS TO BE WATCHED. Getting the word out about child sex trafficking and Backpage's horrible sins against humanity is the first step towards fixing the problem. Watch "I am Jane Doe." Share with your friends. Demand action.

10/10 if you want a better world for your children.

I'm going to be honest, I didn't know about this issue, let alone this film, until it popped up on my Netflix queue. This film came as a shocker to me. Human trafficking is something that happens in third world countries, not America. The emotion is raw and the facts hit you like a freight train. It's unbelievable that our courts and our Congress have not righted this issue by now. Backpage's actions are blatantly illegal and morally indefensible.

Not only is this documentary well made, but it gets right down into the dirt. It exposes something that needed to be brought to light. "I am Jane Doe" deserves every star.

I have totally no idea how an advanced country like USA allowing 'legalised' Abastenia St. Leger Eberle under their watch by giving certain webpage.com to hide behind CDA s230 . Its still happening now and right under those politicians freaking ivory towers . Ask yourself did you vote for them to misrepresenting you ? Do you think any sort of $$ lobbying is going to affect your loved ones negatively when bad things happened ?

By concentrating on child sex trafficking, the film sidesteps the issue of the mass marketing of women (and young men) in general by traffickers who admit that their main tools are drug addiction and violence. That this is considered in anyway part of 'freedom' in America is nauseating. Village Voice is just one of numerous weekly urban free newspapers that get the BULK of their revenue from very expensive and extensive ads for prostitutes, S&M dungeons, sexual massage parlors etc. They throw in a few 'serious articles and listings for restaurants etc. but the 'soul' of the Village Voice and all the other such papers nationwide is PIMPING. That is the main gripe I have with this film is that they celebrate the 'venerable' liberal paper which has sunk to peddling sex for profit.

Fantastic film that opened my eyes through the horrors of Backpage.com and the child sex trafficking industry in this country. So rarely do you see a documentary this raw and honest come out with the full intention of doing good. I have seen this movie twice: once myself and a second time with my family, and it doesn't get easier. But, it does inspire me to join the fight and help in whatever way I can. To me, that is the greatest signifier of a well-made film.
