Truth-based expose of human slave trafficking is more lurid and sleazy than illuminating. Thirteen-year-old Adriana (Gaitan) is kidnapped and taken from Mexico to New Jersey to be sold into sex slavery on the internet. Her brother Jorge (Ramos) and investigator Ray (Kline) pursue, then infiltrate the operation. Director Kreuzpaintner cranks up every sleazy detail, dwelling extensively on the abuse heaped on Adriana and her fellow victims by cruel captor Manuelo (Perez). The result is more sensational than condemning, however, and it's topped off with a cop-out happy ending to make you feel less icky for watching it.
