Lluvia A @RT77312457 Aug 6, 2025 That fact that slavery still exists in modern times is disgusting. This is based on a true story. See more Rosslyn A @RT80907544 Apr 29, 2025 This is the most incredible film, based on a true story and will open your eyes to the fact that modern slavery exists even in our most “civilised” societies. Based on the book “Slave”: the life story of Mende Nazer. Everyone should see this movie. See more Jul 25, 2014 I am thrilled that modern slavery was brought to light through this movie. I know of many Sri Lankans, Pakistani's and Indians who are enslaved in Dubai, Saudi Arabia and the countries that advocate slavery. They believe that their God approves slavery. Some I know who were almost raped, but jumped out the balcony and escaped. This is so real, I hope all of us will fight it and eradicate it from this earth! It was heart wrenching! See more Apr 14, 2013 another excellent flick! See more Mar 25, 2013 Based on a true story, of a small girl kidnapped and sold to slavery in England. Apparently there are at least 5,000 cases like this in England alone... See more Mar 25, 2013 Great movie. Very educational and riveting. Worth 9 lollies. See more Read all reviews
