Wow, what a tell all movie. A bunch of perverted men treating women like subhuman beings. My wife said these men should have their B___S cut off, not a bad idea.

Well made movie about a horrific situation: human trafficking - actually sexual slavery - in Bosnia & complicity by UN peacekeepers. The movie is harrowing to watch, but film makers said violence had been toned down.

Answers two questions that should be asked. What is sex-trafficking? Why does so much of the world hate the United States? If you like the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series, you will like this.

A very shocking film covering human trafficking. Although fictionalized, probably to protect the innocent as well as to avoid a SLAP suite by major defence contractors, the story parallels the experiences of an American police officer who…

A drama about sex trafficking in Bosnia. For me it was not clear who was making money off of the trafficking and who was using service of the trafficked. The makers of the film admitted that they tamped down the depiction of the cruelty…

This factual based drama was well directed (Larysa Kondracki) and acted by Rachel Weisz and other fine supporting actors/actresses. The bonus feature is well worth the viewing time, as it talks to the real Whistleblower, Kathryn Bolkovac,…

Directed by Larysa Kondracki in 2010, this Canadian-German-American docudrama delves into the human trafficking that took place in Bosnia during the late 1990s. The film appears to work like a real whistleblower. It is a pretty good…

Excellent movie dealing with deadly sex trafficking of young girls in Bosnia, dealing with corruption in the high rank of polices and other government agencies, greed, portraying the true reality of depravity of man and human beings…

What is wrong with us as humans that sex trafficking even exists? Have we lost our way this badly? YES This movie puts a visual like no other to the corruption, cover-ups, money, and sickness that is prevalent around us. While this…

Heartbreaking and frustrating movie to watch. If you're looking for a happy ending then don't watch this movie.

I had to get this from KCL since the copies from SPL are missing. Didn't know how to rate this really. Stated at the beginning the storyline is based on factual events. I found it so disturbing that supposed 'peacekeepers' are involved…

It was a real eye-opener to see how corrupt world renowned organizations are heavily involved in corruption yet deny and accept these practices because they were profiting from it. It took a brave soul to shake up that complacency and…

If you are looking for a feel good movie, this isn’t it. You will feel sick and disturbed after watching this excellent movie on sex trafficking. Rachel Weisz does an excellent job in this movie. Well worth the watch.

NOT A MOVIE FOR THE FAINT OF HEART! Whistleblower is an extremely disturbing movie in that it based on reality. Girls (and guys too) and smuggled into various countries to pleasure pigs as seen in this movie, and so many turn a blind…

This true story is so gut-wrenching and sad. Corrupt governments (or is that redundant?), including the US are the real villians here. All this is still going on today and probably always will. But kudos to Kathryn Bolkovac for her…

This is one of the saddest films I have watched - corruption to the core. Bravo to the people who truly wanted to help and bravo to the people who helped get the word out.

POWERFUL POWERFUL movie. The scary part is that it is based on true events. Really makes you wonder about humanity and why we are the way we are. Well done, kept me enraptured the whole way through. I highly recommend this movie.

I watched this a while ago and was surprised to see a film done so perfectly both in content and form. A dark true story performed beautifully and one of the must watch movies!
