Call + Response, the first rockumentary of it’s kind, reveals the world’s 27 million dirtiest secrets: there are more slaves today than ever before in human history. A in-depth look from activists of different professions in the entertainment, news and academic fields, lend their voice, talent and share their stories to why we should all answer the call to end this horrid system of manipulation, sexual slavery, child slavery, slavery of dependence of drugs, and to restore the basic human rights of these children, men and women all over the world who are being bought and sold, raped and drugged, everyday.
