New York, NY - More slaves
exist in the world today than at any other point in
history. Human trafficking is a global issue no country is
immune from.
In order to highlight this global issue, UNICEF Goodwill
Ambassador Lucy Liu
produced and narrated REDLIGHT,
an inspiring and powerful feature documentary about child
sexual exploitation. Filmed over a four year period,
REDLIGHT focuses on the
personal stories of young victims and two remarkable
advocates for change: grass-roots activist Somaly Mam and
politician Mu Sochua. Both have since been nominated for the
Noble Peace Prize and won other numerous human rights awards
around the world.
Please join us for the World Premiere Red-Carpet Screening
of REDLIGHT at 6:00 PM with
limited tickets to the public and at 9:00 PM open to the
general public on
Monday, June 21st 2010, at the SVA Theater, located at 333
West 23rd Street in New York City.
The screening, presented by Priority Films in partnership
with LexisNexis, will be
followed by a special Q&A session featuring Nobel Peace
Prize nominee, Mu Sochua, and the Filmmakers, Guy Jacobson
and Adi Ezroni, who both won the prestigious U.S. State
Department’s Global Hero Award.
The proceeds from this event will benefit RedLight Children
and Restore NYC,
two not for profit organizations working to end slavery and
child exploitation.
