Each year an estimated two million women and children are tricked, beaten, raped, and forced by threat of death into the world's growing sex trade. This heartbreaking film follows women selling sex - from the blistering villages in Africa they can never again call home to the cold, lonely streets of Europe. "You can run, but you can't hide," say the girls, who night after night sell themselves to an endless stream of men. In filthy brothels or parked cars they ply their soulless trade. Street fights are common, as desperate girls steal money from clients to help pay their debts. This film captures firsthand the violence and danger of life working on the streets.
