This is MTV EXIT’s first forray into animation: a stunning piece of socially-minded animation from JM Animation Studio, telling the story of one girl’s descent into human trafficking and the overlap with the various people involved in the ring. There are 3 parts, with a total run time of 25 mins – well worth your time (not to mention the fact that the soundtrack’s provided by Radiohead). Share and comment on how effective a means of raising awareness/storytelling you think it is.
There’s an interesting quality of quiet about some scenes such as the train scene when she leaves the village or when she’s sitting with her friend on the short wall.
The mood stays palpable despite the subject matter; a story like this can easily become the kind that the viewer might need to turn their head away from.
I’ll definitely check out the rest.
