2008 LVHIFF CHILDREN OF THE DARK

 

Spotlight on Japan | North American PREMIERE
 
CHILDREN OF THE DARK traces the drastic fate of Thai children trapped in the machinations of child prostitution and the human organ black market. This new work from established Japanese director Sakamoto Junji does not console audiences with the idea of events taking place in a far-off land, and points a finger at Japan's association with the problem, the key grounds for which are shown as apathetic dismissal, the unwillingness to acknowledge problems beyond the borders of one's own country and the burden of guilt upon those who create the demand for child prostitution and trade in children's organs. WARNING: CONTAINS SCENES UNSUITABLE FOR CHILDREN.
