It's hard to believe but yes, Eden's situation does happen. Shockingly so.
Whether it was inspired by Kim's own apparently false account is irrelevant. It's a powerful and fantastic drama

links to actual stories of high level police corruption and involvement in warehouses full of kidnapped and enslaved women in enforced prostitution in America please. On the same scale please, not small time russian things.

Busted. Why does this false film have such a high rating?

reply

it's not a bad film, it's just not a true story as it pretends to be, although chong kim was the initiator of the lie.

Movie is second rate in every way.

1) it is based on a lie
2) The Bridges Brother is Beau and not Jeff
