Depressing, Highly Effective and Great (by anchovyd) |
I wasn't sure what to expect when my wife picked out this movie to watch but man was this movie ever thought provoking and interesting. What makes the film unique is that there is no narration or cuts to "experts" and hardly any interviews. The camera is more or less a fly on the wall. The only negative this is that the depressing music is cranked a little too high in the mix and is really obtrusive at times.The movie covers prostitution in Thailand, Bangladesh and Mexico. The documentary in specific looks at a midrange operation in Thailand and a sad and depressing filthy <more> |
Depressing and Real (by MikeyB1793) |
I guess it doesn't get much more real than this. And it's a very depressing world for these women – particularly the segment in Bangladesh. We are shown actual film footage inside these brothels. The customers give their reasons for the visits. This is no glamour portrayal of these women – and the men who visit them.One brothel is in Bangkok and it would be the most "upscale" one we are exposed to. At least the women go out to eat and do some shopping.I somewhat question the ethics of the Bangladesh segment. Obviously many of the girls were underage. One was being <more> |
Powerful, but misleading (by hellhound8) |
The film is interesting and powerful, albeit depressing. No idea how the director got access to give us such a candid look, but this is a dark side of the world you won't see anywhere else. The subject is self explanatory, if you're at all interested about the lives of these women in Thailand, Bangladesh, and Mexico then you should experience this.My one critique is thematically, the movie is about prostitution in abject poverty, not prostitution as a "job", but does not make any distinction. The prostitutes in Bangladesh and Mexico he shows were in absolutely horrifying <more> |
Surprising (by Bluepig112) |
This film was a surprise. It was quite interesting, and gave a real look into prostitution that I didn't expect to see. A very well made film. It wasn't until the end that I was disappointed. The graphic sex acts shown being performed were unnecessary, as was all the nudity that didn't present itself anywhere else in the film. The first two countries, Thailand and India, gave us honest looks into the lives of the women. I felt the last portion on Mexico further victimized these women and basically turned into a porno. The film lost some credibility when women started whipping <more> |
Gripping docu about the women in various red light areas throughout the world (by DopamineNL) |
While the chitchatting girls of Bangkok may initially make you think it's actually not that bad, the back alley brothel in Bangladesh kicks you in the stomach. Remember while watching: 100 Taka 0,95. And while the men are reduced to nasty, ignorant, or at least naive animals that can't help but exert their primal urges 'without the brothel all women would get raped all the time' is a telling quote , it's the madams' treatment of their girls that will truly horrify any viewer. The documentary ends slightly surrealistic, though not unsuitable, in a drug-fueled <more> |
