Impactful. Powerful. Eye-opening. Please see it in theatres. And wait until after the credits for the special message. Really fantastic. Thank you Jim Caviezel. Thank you Angel Studios.

I started tearing up when the boy saif his name was "Teddy Bear" in the car. It gives the perspective of everyone human trafficking effects - the kids, the parent, the investigators, the traffickers themselves and of course the warped minds of the pedophiles. I wasn't expecting it to be very graphic given the movie is PG-13 but they masterfully left the graphic details off screen without losing the traumatic emotional impact.
It's a great movie and it definitely lays the ground for more work like this to be released. All but two seats in my theatre were filled.
I lost it when the little girl started singing again after everything. Holy crap that hit me deep.
Yeah that hit hard. The way they started the movie and ended it in the same location really knocked it out of the park. After everything she went through too.. I need to learn more about the real Tim Ballard and how I can support his work. I might have to switch fields and get into cyber forensics and do what I can to help.
God bless you! I hope you do it!
Yeah, the "Teddy Bear" name was gut-wrenching. The acting from all the primary characters was top notch. The cigar guy who helped set up the island bust was incredible. When he told his hooker story and the cats she had painted on her toenails, I about lost it.
The painted toenails scene really makes you think about all these sex workers and e-girls. High probability they've been sexually abused and they're mentally trapped
