Come watch CALL+ RESPONSE, a rock-u-mentary for and about 27
million PEOPLE: sex slaves, child soldiers, endentured laborers.
The film goes deep undercover where slavery is thriving, from the
child brothels of Cambodia to the slave brick kilns of rural India,
to reveal some shocking secrets: there are more slaves today than
ever before in human history. AND in 2007, Slave Traders made more
money than Google, Nike and Starbucks combined.
By raising awareness and funding global projects that combat human
trafficking, CALL+ RESPONSE, a film that was funded entirely by
donations, is part of a grass-roots movement that heeds the call
for human rights that still needs to be answered.
CALL + RESPONSE features political and cultural luminaries such as
Cornel West, Madeleine Albright, Daryl Hannah, Julia Ormond, Ashley
Judd, Nicholas Kristof and supporting artists that include Moby,
Natasha Bedingfield, Cold War Kids, Matisyahu, Imogen Heap, Talib
Kweli, Five For Fighting, Switchfoot, Nickel Creek, and Tom Petty.
Rally a cry for the modern abolitionist movement. Support
burgeoning activists. Watch this movie.
CALL+ RESPONSE is a non-profit film. Currently, tickets are only
sold in advance, so please buy now. All proceeds fund global
projects fighting human trafficking. As this will be a benefit
event, please feel free to contribute more than the ticket
price.
We urge you to commit to bringing a group of 10 or more. If you can
do so, please leave a note on this event's wall, and one of us will
contact you.
