The Selling of Innocents is a documentary exposing the trafficking in young women and children from the villages of Nepal to the brothels of Mumbai. The camera pans the hovels in the red-light area where these women service clients to earn money to support their families in Nepal. It is a sordid tale, told with rare feeling and sensitivity. Selling of Innocents wastes no time on gimmicks. It goes straight to the heart of the matter by showing the pain and the horror of the innocent victims of a system which has long been there. Winner of the 1997 Emmy in News and Journalism. Shown on Cinemax and Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
