SYNOPSIS:
When
13-year-old Adriana is kidnapped by sex traffickers in Mexico
City, her 17-year-old brother, Jorge, sets off on a desperate
mission to save her.
Trapped by an underground network of international thugs who
earn millions exploiting their human cargo, Adriana's only
friend throughout her ordeal is Veronica, a young Polish woman
captured by the same criminal gang. As Jorge dodges overwhelming
obstacles to track the girl's abductors, he meets Ray, a Texas
cop whose own family loss leads him to become an ally.
From the barrios of Mexico City and the treacherous Rio Grande
border, to a secret internet sex slave auction and a tense
confrontation at a stash house in suburban New Jersey, Ray
and Jorge forge a close bond as they frantically pursue Adriana's
kidnappers before she is sold and disappears into a brutal
underworld from which few victims ever return.
Inspired by Peter Landesman's chilling NY Times Magazine story
on the U.S. sex trade, "The Girls Next Door," TRADE
is a thrilling story of courage and a devastating expose of
one of the world's most heinous crimes.
The American debut of Marco Kreuzpaintner, one of Germany's
leading young directors, TRADE is produced by Roland Emmerich
and Rosilyn Heller from a screenplay by Academy Award nominee
Jose Rivera.
