Each year, thousands of girls are recruited from Burma to work in brothels in Thailand. Trafficking of Burmese girls has increased in recent years as a result of political repression in Burma. Thousands of people have been displaced, leaving families with no means of livelihood. This video examines the social, cultural, and economic forces behind the trafficking of Burmese girls into prostitution.
