Plots(1)
In this wildly celebrated two-part work, made originally for British TV, two Moldavian girls, attracted by life and work in London, are unwillingly drawn into the sex industry as they are illegally trafficking across Europe. They travel first to Serbia, then Bosnia, and finally Italy where, on route, Elena is separated from her sister when she is used as a decor and thrown over the side of the boat in the Adriatic Sea. Daniel Appleton, an investigator and researched with "Speak for Freedom" travels Eastern Europe to uncover the trafficking routes, and encounters the plight of the girls.
