Inspired by testimonies through "The Genesis Project", Seattle, Used is a raw look at the reality of sex trafficking through Skylar (Gabby Barbosa). Raised in an abusive home, Skylar finds solace in Brady (Dylan Garcia), an Instagram admirer, turned boyfriend. Things are as happy as can be until Brady manipulates Skylar, convincing her that they can have their dream life together if she sells herself on the street. Years down the road, police, led by Officer Liam Shelton (Philip Carlisle), arrest Skylar and Brady, bringing them in for questioning. Liam takes pity on Skylar, offering her freedom and protection in return for her full testimony.

Gabby D Barbosa, Safiya Andrews, Collin Fischer, Jason Ryan, and Khuloud Kelly Rabadi in Used (2022)
