SOLD 7/21/16 The Spectrum
I was invited to a screening of Sold; it was one of those setups where the sponsoring group had to sell enough tickets in advance to bring the film here. The PM bought two tickets, and made 'a donation to the cause' (I'm sure there's more to this part of the story).
The tickets were sold out for this screening, apparently bought by people only interested in making the donation, because maybe there were 25 people in the theater. This film is about human trafficking; a thirteen year old girl is unwittingly 'sold' into prostitution by her parents. About 25 minutes into the film, the PM says 'I'll be out there', and leaves. So I get my things and meet him in the lobby. What did he think a film about human trafficking would be about? https://www.soldthemovie.com
