Last night my sister and I watched the movie Taken. I know that it came a few months ago, but I thought I would still make a few comments about the film…
The movie is about a man’s daughter who gets kidnapped and sold in the the sex trafficking business. The father goes after her and rescues her before she is forced into the trade. The movie, though the content is awful, was an excellent movie. The best thing about it is that it is incredibly accurate in how the trafficking begins and how girls are sold into this awful trade.
The movie even shows how the corrupt nature of governments. In the film, it is a French man who works for the secret service that allows the crimes to continue because he makes a profit from it…sadly, this happens all the time. And America is not immune to this either. Girls are trafficked everyday, and America is included.
If you have not seen this movie I encourage you to see it, not only because it is a good film, but because it will open your eyes to the atrocities that are taking place everyday, often without us even knowing it.
