Trivia
The film, its visual style, action sequences and storytelling was heavily influenced by Luc Besson films.

Goofs
Elinor had stated early in the film that she was in the Israeli army. She should have had a good knowledge of how to use a pistol, yet she asked Galia for shooting instructions.

This was not the pistol she trained on and was familiar with, so she asked how to use it.

Quotes

Sex Trafficker: I told you girls to smile.

Traffic

The action is pretty decent and it stays true to it's origins (language wise, you will hear a few languages spoken throughout the entire movie). It has a strong leading performance by Olga K. (also known for her role in the most recent Bond movie, not that much for her Hit-man turn-up). Apart from that you have good to decent acting throughout, but a few scenes fall short of the premise.

This is a very sensible theme and the director did a decent job in portraying that. Still there are quite a few flaws (like length and dialogue choices, clichés) that might hinder you from rating this movie higher. Than again, I just read a 10/10 review and the user sounded pretty convincing. So it's up to you, if you see more than I did or agree with me
