PROTECT THE BLACK WOMEN: This movie really displays why that statement is necessary. To see so many beautiful Nigerian sistas trafficked, sexually exploited, and killed, is a disturbing sight. In my opinion, this movie reflects all Melanated women of the African diaspora:
"Human trafficking is modern day slavery in action. The industry is worth $150 billion globally. $99 billion alone is generated from sexual exploitation. The route between North, East, and West Africa generates $150 million dollars in annual profits."~Oloture
Plot summary
Set in Nigeria, Oloture is the story of a naive young Nigerian journalist who goes undercover to expose the shady underworld of human trafficking. Unused to this brutal environment crawling with ruthless traders and pimps, Oloture finds warmth and friendship with Blessing, Linda, and Beauty, the prostitutes with whom she lives. However, she gets drawn into their lifestyle and finds coping difficult. In her quest to uncover the truth, she pays the ultimate price--one that takes her to the verge of no return.

BEAUTIFUL AFRICAN WOMEN
Was going to rate it a 7 but....
With a abrubt ending it destroyed the whole movie. Maybe the money were used up, i don't know. Could have been so good but nooo!!
Wheres the rest?
I absolutely hate movies that leave me stuck at the end. Especially when it was a good movie all the way until the end. I liked the story line, the actors, and even the plot. I liked that the main character, Oloture's roll in the movie as a Journalist. I kind of was hoping she WAS the police, but making her a journalist made her even that more vulnerable. I love the subject of trafficking because we just don't discuss it and the world needs to start showing everyone what happens, even if it's made up in a movie. One of the reviewers said that this movie made you see what goes on with people through their eyes and I agree. This is why movies like these are important, so we can stop and actually live in someones shoes for once. I wish that the ending was better, though. I wish that Oloture at least got out of it and I hope there is a part 2 with her struggle as she is now kidnapped. Overall I definitely liked it for what it's worth.
