As the Trinidad and Tobago film industry continues to thrive, the beautiful twin island Republic is thrilled to announce that Trafficked, the award winning film from Trinidad and Tobago will make its European Premiere at the 13th Festival International du Film PanAfricain de Cannes from April 16-20, 2016.

Trafficked, a 72-minute feature film, directed by Sean Hodgkinson and presented by Eye On Dependency and Quirky Films; centers around a trio of vacationing friends on a picture perfect Caribbean beach, who are seduced into a dangerous con when they become involved with a charismatic stranger.

Inspired by true events - as told to Garth and Natasha St. Clair on their award winning radio program; Eye On Dependency - the film seeks to raise awareness about the dangers of drug trafficking in the Caribbean Executive Producer, St. Clair, adds: “The film captures almost perfectly the ills and dangers of Human and Drug Trafficking. Trafficked is not only a fantastic and hair raising film, but it is an important crime fighting tool and shows the darker side of what people believe is a tropical paradise.”

Trafficked has been subtitled into both Spanish and English, and the team is diligently working on subtitling the film into French for the festival release.

Trafficked first premiered at the trinidad +tobago film festival in September 2015 and earned the title for Best Local Feature Film.
