“THE TRADE” is a vérité, character-driven docu-series that focuses on the illicit trades of human smuggling and trafficking.
The series tracks the cycle of Central American migrants coming to the United States and being deported back to their home countries, focusing on the shadow industries that surround them at every step of the journey.
By documenting smugglers who prey on the migrant’s vulnerability, traffickers who exploit their illegal status to abuse them, and law enforcement who try to catch them at the border, the series will take audiences inside the underbelly of the migrant world.
Shot with unparalleled access in the gang ridden slums of Honduras, stash houses of Mexico, and the riverbeds of the Texas border, “THE TRADE” journeys beyond the headlines to tell a complex, nuanced story of the dark side of the American dream.
