ABAS Law Foundation presents the narrative feature film SOLD adapted from the internationally acclaimed novel by Patricia McCormick. The film is based on a true story and illustrates the brutality of child trafficking. This acclaimed film (winner of three film festivals) tells the story of a 13-year old girl’s plight after being sold to a brothel. The International Labor Organization estimates over 20 million people are enslaved today. Approximately, 5.5 million of these slaves are children forced into sex and labor slavery. Currently, it is estimated that 1.8 million children are trafficked each year into sexual slavery. SOLD is directed by Academy and Emmy award winner, Jeffrey D. Brown, Executive Produced by two-time Academy Award winner, Emma Thompson. The film aims to inspire a global movement to address the crime of child trafficking domestically and internationally.
