Description
Eleven male sex-trade workers are followed over the course of a year, recounting their struggle to survive alcohol and drug-related addictions, abuse and stigmatization – but most of all, their troubled pasts. Trapped in a vicious circle of prostitution and drugs, they pursue their hardscrabble lives, knowing their prospects for the future are dim. An unflinching portrait with neither voyeurism nor false sympathy, Men for Sale acknowledges those whom society prefers to ignore.
