During the film's first screening in Toronto, a viewer fainted due to the violent scenes in the film, and most of the rape scenes were cut off as a result.
Regarding this, Weisz said:
I fully understand that it is indeed too painful for people to look at these things.
The real situation is much more tragic.
I mean, in the story of the first person who came into contact with these young women, all I can tell you is this "low-key" version, if you can accept such content.
However, this is not a documentary, and you don't want to destroy anyone (in it).
You just want to clarify a few things, and the actual situation is a hundred times worse.
UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon hosted a screening of the film and promised to take measures to prevent UN staff from participating in sex trafficking activities.
Pokvak responded to this: "Unfortunately, the fear has been widely spread. The road to correction will be complicated and there will be no quick resolution." She also said that in addition to Bosnia, peacekeepers are in Nigeria, Kosovo, Burundi, Sierra Leone, Congo, Liberia, Cambodia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Haiti, Colombia, Guinea and Sudan all have violations of human rights.
Kang Daki expressed her intention to remain optimistic about this, hoping that the screening of the film will "enable people to have real discussions and thinking about the UN's involvement in sex trafficking and other criminal activities." But she also worries that the film may not have the expected lasting impact: "I know we will hear a lot of opinions about what measures have been taken since the film was released, but so far these are just rhetoric. The actual situation has been escalated.
" , The Guardian reported that UN officials tried to downplay the events depicted in the film and that the fight against human trafficking in Bosnia has been suspended.
Ashley Burke, spokesperson of Daiyang International, said:
I haven’t seen the movie, so I can’t comment on its content, but I may tell you that when we contacted the film distributor to try to learn more about the film, we learned that the film was not adapted from the work of Ms. Pokvak. It is a'fictional dramatic presentation' inspired by her experience. We also did not threaten to take legal action to require them not to use the company’s real name in the film.
Sorry, the above is the content I reproduced. I think it is more convincing.
First of all, the company name Daiyang International that appears in the movie is real, and Daiyang International has been involved in various things of the United Nations (business ), and finally UN Secretary General Pan also organized to watch this film, I believe there will be some action!
But...the weak rush to eat
