Avenue Zero Avenue Zéro
2010
DVD
Asian girls are enslaved in suburban massage parlours; domestic workers toil like slaves in suburban homes. Vancouver gangs recruit Honduran boys to sell drugs; girls in a Montreal subway station are lured into prostitution. Human trafficking is still a reality today. And it's happening closer to home than you might think. Featuring candid interviews with victims and witnesses, Avenue Zero weaves a spellbinding portrait of a dark and sinister trade flourishing in the shadows of the law.
