content
Ray van Mechelen and Mark Camps are girls traffickers. They travel to Lithuania to supply their brothels in Belgium with prostitutes. During a dance competition, they persuade girls to perform as dancers in discotheques in Western Europe and have them sign a contract in Greek that they do not understand. In Cyprus girls are taught striptease ; then they are taken to Antwerp , and after their papers have been removed, the ten young women are distributed to the brothels. The series shows the fate of women who are forced into prostitution by force. There is also no help from the authorities or the sometimes corrupt police. The Belgian journalist Nicolas tries to help.
