So far, I’ve only seen the trailer for this, but it packs a lot in to the two minutes and definitey looks worth a watch.
Inspired by the chilling true story of Chong Kim, award-winning Eden peers into the darkest corners of America & attempts to discover the humanity within.
The year is 1994. Korean-American teenager, Hyun Jae (Jamie Chung;The Hangover Part II & III, Sucker Punch, The Man with the Iron Fists), goes to a bar in New Mexico where a handsome young man buys her drinks and offers her a ride home. But she never reaches home and is instead abducted and forced into prostitution by a domestic human and drug trafficking ring located outside the bright lights of Las Vegas, Nevada.
Hyun Jae is initiated into her new life by Bob Gault (Beau Bridges; The Descendants, Stargate SG-1), the corrupt Federal Marshall who runs the organisation and troubled Vaughan (Matt O’Leary; Spy Kids, Fat Kid Rules the World, Disney’s The Lone Ranger). Through a haze of morphine, Hyun Jae (soon renamed Eden, by her captors) learns what her future holds: sex with strangers and life in a 10×10 storage unit.
Throughout the two years she is held, Eden reluctantly ensures her own survival by carving out power and influence within the very organization that has imprisoned her.
