A compassionate, eye-opening look at the complexities of sex work, this fly-on-the-wall documentary reveals the goings-on at the Queens Human Trafficking Court, a boldly progressive female-run space that favors rehabilitation over jail time. The film’s clear-eyed approach is bolstered by interviews that illuminate each defendant’s unique set of circumstances and reveal the women who assist them—from the social workers to the lawyers, to the calmly empathetic Judge Toko Serita—as real-life heroes.
