With 45 million sex trafficking victims worldwide, only 1% manage to escape or be rescued.

Jain monk Sadhvi Siddhali Shree, the filmmaker behind the award-winning documentary STOPPING TRAFFIC: THE MOVEMENT TO END SEX TRAFFICKING, uncovers the depth of pain felt by survivors as well as if and how they can truly recover. Through conversations with victims and trips to women’s shelters around the world, SURVIVING SEX TRAFFICKING reveals their stories and how they escaped, how they continue to survive, and how they live day to day with the repressed trauma from the horrific events they experienced.
