This powerful documentary exposes the brutal reality of forced labour and human trafficking within Thailand’s fishing and seafood industries. Thousands of migrant workers, many from Myanmar, are trapped in debt bondage and forced to work in dangerous conditions to produce cheap seafood sold around the world.

Through undercover investigation and first-hand accounts, this film reveals the hidden human cost behind the global seafood industry and the criminal networks exploiting vulnerable workers.

This is a hard-hitting investigation into modern slavery, human trafficking and the global supply chains that allow it to continue.
