Hi, I want you to see it, so I made an account after lurking for a long time to answer your questions.

Plot: Homeland security officer arrests a pedo, pretends to befriend him to discover source of trafficking, goes to extensive lengths to save a child. I don’t want to spoil it for you but that’s the synopsis.

Tough sections are the suggestions towards sex. The film does well at not revealing anything graphic or punching you in the face. However, the suggestions that the children were being used for sex were very obvious and clearly intended.

Approach to the topic from a storyline perspective is similar to Taken, if you’ve seen that movie. If not, it’s a very linear action storyline. From a message perspective, it’s presented in a very straightforward way that is not especially thought provoking - going so far as to simply state facts in the prologue and epilogue re: human/child trafficking. There is a scene where the protagonist cop is directly stating statistics. I don’t think this is necessarily a bad thing (normies need that), but from a movie perspective it did seem kind of cheesy.

From a film-making perspective, it’s unambitious* (ninja edit) but its message is clear and powerful. I think anyone would appreciate the movie, even if you are deep in the weeds with all of this shit like many of us here are. But it must be said that the film is clearly directed towards people not paying attention to what’s going on. Hope this helps
