Innocents Lost
Synopsis
The Heart-Rendering Truth about the Exploitation of Children Across the World
From the producers of The Dying Rooms comes this hard-hitting two-part documentary exposing crimes against ‘wanted’ and ‘unwanted’ children around the world.
The ‘unwanted’ are quite literally thrown away, like the disabled boys we see chained to cages in a state-run Greek orphanage. The ‘wanted’ are the children who are commercially exploited by adults, corporations and governments.
Examples highlighted by the films include the recruitment of four-year-olds into West African domestic service, and Costa Rican 11-year-olds prostituted to western men.
Harrowing interviews with the children themselves and footage documenting their appalling existence makes Innocents Lost an important and disturbing film.
