I LOVE IT...... I received it today and sat right down and watched it. My daughter and i planned on watching it together but i couldn't wait for her, so i will watch it again with her.
I watched it from start to end and it was very entertaining. I had no idea that there are children out there that have to live like this. It was very heart wrenching, i have two girls of my own and i can not imagine that they would have had to run away from home to feel safe yet be so abused.
It is one you can watch over and over again. You should be very proud of it. I am glad i bought it i feel like i got my money's worth. And i am looking forward to your next movie. Congratulations to you and your husband.
A DANCE FOR BETHANY tells an inspiring and compelling story of how one woman risks everything to help a sex trafficked victim out of the world of slavery and into a world with a future and a hope of fulfilling a childhood dream of becoming a real dancer. The fictional story based on the reality of the sex trafficking market in today’s US, The fictional Bethany Stevenson is iconic as a 12 year old runaway forced into sex slavery as a stripper/prostitute. The film chronicles the struggle of reporter Abbey Fisher to free her own self from the bondage of a politically correct and comfortable lifestyle into her passion. After meeting and befriending young Bethany, Abbey immediately meets opposition from local club owners who don’t want to lose one of their prime moneymakers. Abbey is quickly challenged when she learns that she is caught in a tightly woven web of politics, morals and crime and becomes a problem to those who want to profit from sexually exploiting young women. She takes on her husband and his colleague, Senator George Abbot and their attempt at creating legislation that inadvertently profits by the retailing of sex in the US thereby legitimizing it. With the help of Sarah, Abbey's best friend and Co-worker and Eric Vandevere, local dance instructor, Bethany receives support and courage to make a new life for herself and in the process publicly exposes the dehumanization of the sex trade in her city. In the end, the Reporter, Abbey Fisher is the one who finds true redemption as she reaches outside herself to help another.
Running Time: 144 minutes.
