When was the last time you watched a movie that moved you?

A film that made you think, a kind of film that isn't talked about very much at all - for one major reason, it may be so dark that most of us can't even comprehend. There is a movie director from New York that is planning on diving into the eerie, sinister world of human trafficking - his name is Ejaz Khan. You might remember that name from the last movie he made, which was filmed in Linton, North Dakota, called "Before They Vanished" - Here is the thing about creative filmmakers, they are always looking for their next project, and THIS one took place involving a young lady and her experience with being sexually assaulted - he met her while he was in Linton.

So what exactly is Human Trafficking?

It is almost a form of kidnapping - young women, a lot of them, have had a semi-troubled childhood, maybe they came from a broken home, and insensitive people become involved with them, and before you know it they are basically being used for "sexual favors" for money, which is given to whoever is running their operation. For most of us, it's beyond our imagination that young girls/women could allow themselves to be in such a horrific situation, but the common thread is they feel powerless. A friend of mine on Facebook has been a huge help to me, she has met Ejaz, and knows just how powerful this movie could be, a dark topic that people don't really want to talk about. This movie will shock you and hopefully raise awareness. Kxnet.com reported that Khan had this to say about his project called "Trapped" - “It’s here and we just put a blind eye to it and I believe that it should be known and it should be stopped,” Here is a quick look:

***** Today is October 23, 2024 - I have an update on this movie *****

I had a chance to talk to Ejaz Khan today - he and Ann Ann are having an exclusive invitation to a private screening of their impactful film, Trapped. This private screening will be held on November 13th in Bismarck at the Grand Theater. They told me that their target date for this movie to be released ( shot in North Dakota ) is January 21st. From start to finish this project took Ejaz and his crew 4 years to make. I'm honored that I have been invited to be there at the Grand on November 13th. "The very few people who have seen the movie all said the same thing to me when it was over - I am super anxious to get home as quick as possible and talk with my kids..." Ejaz told me.

That's powerful. Scary, and Real.
