Great work by Hsiao-Hung Pai and Nick Broomfield in their investigation into the exploitation of Chinese and other immigrants. This is not about Miss Kitty working the saloon on Gunsmoke. No romantic view here, just the ugly face of reality in a brothel run by vipers and scum, possibly themselves exploited and abused at one time and have themselves sunk to even lower depths than the women they exploit.
Well, worth the watch. The film is suspenseful, sad and interesting at the same time. The film moves by real drama. It was much better than I expected, better than many of the other documentaries on the subject of prostitution.
