Eden

But in the United States, with a backslapping good old boy running the operation? Could it be?

Eden

Eden, a young Korean-American girl, is abducted near her home in New Mexico and forced into prostitution by a domestic human and drug trafficking ring located outside the bright lights of Las Vegas, Nevada. Throughout the two years she is held, Eden reluctantly ensures her own survival by carving out power and influence within the very organization that has imprisoned her. Inspired by a harrowing true story, EDEN peers into the darkest corners of America and attempts to discover the humanity within.

"EDEN... is nothing short of gripping." -Drew Taylor, Indiewire

"EDEN both elicits a continuous feeling of dread and hope, showing us a side of America you could not imagine existed". -Noah Lee, Film Threat

"EDEN translates a true-life tale of human trafficking into an ... arrestingly suspenseful drama.” – Joe Leydon, Variety
