Writer / Director David N. Donihue takes on Human Trafficking  for BREATHE CAROLINA & BLASTERJAXX - SOLDIER
SOLDIER is an adrenaline rush packed emotional reaction to the worldâs darkest trade happening in our own back yards.
While the story for Blasterjaxxâs new music video by Donihue and his Super Rad Films team is fictional, the facts, locations and scenarios within are all too real. 4.5 million people, most of which women and children, are currently in sexual slavery worldwide. And the United States is no stranger to the human trafficking trade. Los Angeles is one of the largest destinations in the world and SOLDIER battles itâs way right into the heart of real life scenarios.
The modern pimp doesnât look like Danny Trejo or some old guy in a fur coat. He is young and sweet seeming. 17 to 23 often times. Good looking and charming enough to become boyfriends with the 13 year old girls. The girls getting messed with at home. The girls whose lives are hell.Â
They charm them and give them protection and love but once a few weeks roll by, like clockwork, theyâve got them on drugs and are convincing them to do them a favor. They claim financial crisis but ask to have them do just this one thing. Then once turns into twice. And so on. Before long, they are actually being required to have sex with forty guys a day. The average young pimp can make 4000 per girl per day and runs about four to six girls at the same time, bringing in around 3200 a day. He works for a larger network. They are organized and volatile.Â
This is the story of how an evil young man sucks them in and chews them up and how one survivor becomes a soldier of love.
It is not a promotion of violence but an honest emotional response to the darkest problem in the world.
It is common for the victims of exploitation to be suffering from Stockholme Syndrome, where they feel empathy for their attackers. The majority of them think itâs their fault and are brain washed by their victims. Loving friends can help them snap out of it. The majority of victims have access to cell phones and many answer their own ads. They could get help at anytime and so many choose not to.Â
In Soldier, a trust worthy war veteran (played by screen legend Patrick Kilpatrick) finds a trafficking victim post escape, nurses her back to health and then prepares her for the ultimate mission - to rescue the others.
If you or someone you know is being bullied or coerced into selling your body there are good people who will love you and can get you out of the situation RIGHT NOW:Â
