OCTAVES

Based on actual events. A young woman is lured to Spain from her home in Bolivia with a job opportunity at a cleaning company. The promise of a stable job, and the possibility to send money back home was too much to pass up. However, what she encounters is a dark connected world in the global trade of buying and selling people. The competing voices of past, present, and future are both deafening, and silent at the same time. Her innocence can be stolen, but not her resilience.

How does one journey from victim to survivor? Those working in the anti-trafficking space know that question is not a quick and easy fix, but long-term marathon commitment to fight. See the full story at bittersweetmonthly.com/stories/rescue-freedom
