FILM SYNOPSIS - http://www.fatalpromises.com/Fatal_Promises/Synopsis.html
Through personal stories of victims and interviews
with politicians, NGO representatives and activists, Fatal Promises provides a
comprehensive look at the realities of human trafficking versus the rhetoric of
politicians and pundits who claim to be making significant strides in combating
this horrific crime against humanity. Ukraine, the second largest country in
Europe, is a prime example of a nation struggling to establish a stable
economy, a functioning legal system and to control criminal enterprises of
which Human Trafficking is the largest. Over the years, hundreds of thousands
of women, children and men have been trafficked from Ukraine to the United
States, Western Europe and the Balkans since the fall of the Soviet Union.
Nadja was 17 years old when she was deceived by a school
friend to work in a hotel in Moldavia and instead was trafficked into the sex
industry, her papers confiscated, her resistance beaten into submission. She
was locked up in an apartment. Every day she was taken to different places to
serve customers. Her attempts to escape led to more violence. While enslaved
she witnessed the murder and rape of others.
Anja was lured to Russia with the promise of work. She
spent months as a slave in an orchard. She was held prisoner in a camp,
witnessed violence, experienced rape an never saw a dime for her work.
