Modern Slave
2018, 15 minutes
A young girl coerced into sex-trafficking must escape the emotional cage her "Romeo Pimp" has trapped her in before she loses what little hope remains to live and dream.
Modern Slave introduces 16-year old Grace, a resourceful dreamer who ran away from foster care to LA with the hopes of enrolling in cosmetology school. Instead she was sold on false love, a fake sense of protection and fraudulent dreams. While she is told the door to her freedom is open, Grace remains emotionally confined to her dingy motel room where she's bound to the sex trafficking industry and must fulfill a seemingly endless daily quota - the dreams she was promised always kept out of reach.
