... shoulda-been 3-4 ... not-6

... overall, it got saved a bit by the last couple episodes, but just a bit... were it a decent feature movie length, it would have been sooo much better... way it is now, at well over four hours is just excessive for the story... acting, production values-scenery are fairly decent... it's a lot the writing throws all things off

... some of the twists and turns are inventive, especially the final ninety minutes or so, but on their own cannot carry a plot-story too drawn out for time extended... most of the reviewers are more positive than deserved, but that's what makes some of these Euro-productions more interesting-watchable.

Shocking, disturbing ... but perhaps not that memorable

The story is well conceived and well acted. At times, it is both grim and hard-hitting.

Fiction aside, the viewer may even be prompted to pause and consider the real girls who choose this risky way out of a dead-end life.

If those aspects came across well, then there were also some misgivings. As a theme, sex-trafficking, drugs and violence has been done to death in recent years, so it would take something very special to stand out from the crowd. This didn't quite hit those heights.

It should also be pointed out - and I've seen others mention it too - that the dialogue is frequently too abrupt to be realistic. - 7.7/10.
