Director Alejandro Monteverde and co-writer Rod Barr say they wanted their film — which has been associated with QAnon and become highly polarized even as it’s grossed $172.8 million — to bring an apolitical awareness to an important matter, which 'is not a conservative or a liberal issue.'
it has been difficult to watch controversy and partisanship distract, even a little, from the deep intention of our work: to use the power of film to bring awareness to the reality of child trafficking.
Way back in 2015, when we began researching and writing this project, we told each other many times, “If there’s one issue that can unite everyone, it’s ending child trafficking.” We still believe that. Child trafficking is not a conservative or a liberal issue. It is a fundamental human rights issue, one that strikes at our very core as human beings.
