7 Prisoners

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.

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.

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.

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.

A Brazilian drama on Netflix. To provide a better life for his family in the country, 18-year-old Mateus accepts a job in a junkyard in São Paulo for his new boss, Luca, but becomes trapped in the dangerous world of human trafficking.

Phew this movie was intense. Human trafficking was already a serious topic that didn't get much attention or solution, and this movie brought this topic back up with a terrifying look at how the cycle of traffickers and trafficking perpetuates.

What made this movie so horrifying was its simple yet realistic story. The main character was smart and knew how to survive in the harsh world, but by doing that he started to lose his humanity and his old self. With his situation, it's frustrating, shocking, but bizarrely logical watching the decisions that the main character made.

When I watch a movie I usually look at the time to see how far I was into the movie. However, this was one of those that brought my attention almost 100% for the whole runtime.

Overall, a movie that tackled a dark topic in a realistic way that would draw you all in. 9/10.
