COSTA MESA, Calif.,
Sept. 17, 2013
/Christian Newswire/ -- Executive Produced and Narrated by
Natalie Grant, "In Plain Sight: Stories of Hope and Freedom" seeks to
raise awareness of the thousands of women and children who are forced,
coerced, or deceived into the commercial sex trade each year in the
United States.
Benefitting the work of Abolition International, the campaign centers
around three resources including the documentary film, a compilation
worship album, and a 31 day devotional / small group study guide -- all
three to be released into stores and online by Word Entertainment in
2014.
Journeying to five US cities, the documentary will help five
unsuspecting families open their eyes to what's happening down the
street "in plain sight." In addition, stories of hope and freedom will
be shared as Abolition International aftercare homes are profiled in
each of the five cities.
"Most Americans are completely oblivious to the fact that thousands of
women and children are enslaved within their own communities," said
David Trotter, co-executive producer. "This isn't limited to Las Vegas,
Los Angeles, and New York. We're talking about cities across America --
from Sacramento to Dallas to Tampa -- where the unthinkable is
happening."
To fund the campaign, organizers are raising $75,000 through
tax-deductible donations via Indiegogo -- a crowd funding website
similar to Kickstarter. Although contributions can be made in any
amount, those who donate $150 or more will be listed as an Associate
Producer in the film's credits.
