Filmmaker Mimi Chakarova sits down with One Decision's
Julia Macfarlane to discuss what has changed in the fight against
human trafficking and slavery since her groundbreaking film
that shined a light on vulnerable women from Eastern
Europe who were manipulated and tricked into selling their bodies,
trapped in a life of slavery. From Turkey to the Middle East to
Western Europe, she chronicled the lives of women who managed
to escape, but also revealed the men and women who worked to uphold
the criminal structures that exploited them - even police officers.
As waves of refugees flood Europe from
Ukraine, Mimi warns that there
are similar conditions today where people fleeing
war are at risk of the same dangers as the women who left the Iron
Curtain to seek better lives. And Sir Richard Dearlove
gives the context of Eastern Europe's political progress since the
fall of the Soviet Union, and why some states
are more vulnerable to corruption and organized crime.
