I am seeing all the bad reviews and it's all people who have no clue about the cruel reality of the world. Especially in Brazil with the rampant corruption there. The main character was presented with many obstacles in his way. There was no escape, because the human trafficking was connected to the politicians. There were several hints throughout the film that highlighted that the entire city was in on the corruption. The store owners, cops, different sweatshops. I'm giving this film five stars to balance the horrible reviews by those that live in fairytale land.
