A very good attempt to portray the treatment and conditions of people who are trafficked for their labour.

I am going to guess that actual conditions and treatment are much, much worse but that would probably make an unwatchable movie.

Every person who cares about the treatment of their fellow human beings, should see this movie.

I enjoyed this movie a lot.

Of course it's a simple movie but the story is not predictable at all. The characters are interesting and the camera work is very good too. You can watch it for free also

Give it a chance.

Being Mexican and living in Texas, this movie was of interest to me.

Good movie, worth giving it a watch.

Not a family friendly or date night movie. Serious subject matter.

One of the best international films I've seen in a long time. It's the opposite of what you'd expect from a Hollywood produced film about this topic. It's a documentary styled story that feels as real as it gets. There's barely a score throughout the film, but that silence in the scenes just makes it more realistically unsettling.

This is novice Brazilian writer and director Alexandre Moratto's second only full length feature film, with only a handful of docu's and shorts. What makes this film brilliant besides its perfect presentation, is how a universally know problem of being trafficked, also portrays the moral dilemma of when the victim is given the option to become the captor. And even that is a true reality.

The casting and performances are exceptionally realistic, and apparently one of the cast members with zero acting skills is a human trafficking survivor. The sets and locations are what you'd expect to see from slumdog gangsters in underdeveloped countries.

This film is a must see for everyone, as it's told in such a way that you will not be prepared for it, it will leave you unsettled for a while, and at the very least, educate you in the most realest way possible - second only to being the victim or captor, about international human trafficking. It sure opened up my eyes.

Moratto is certainly an up and coming filmmaker to keep an eye out for. Bravo Netflix for yet another acquisition of such a gem of a film. A well deserved 8/10 from me.

This film exposes the reality of labor exploitation in Brazil.

The film has a good development of the story, it exposes a forceful blow of reality about how it is to want to improve the individual economic situation, it touches the subject of labor exploitation, corruption, of how economic necessity can force you to enslave other people in order to make money regardless of the human rights of others, it is impressive how this film exposes these issues and how it develops a memorable and very raw story. The performances make the movie feel very real, the production design is good as is the character development. The only negative aspect is that when something shocking happens it does not continue, it stays there and it does not happen in the story.

But still the film manages to impact the viewer and manages to expose the labor and economic situation that exists in Brazil.
