In the most beautiful coastal city of Recife, Brazil – the world capital for sex tourism – a couple of determined women decided they would try to break the cycle of domestic violence and get kids off the streets. Hummingbird goes out onto the streets and sees the harsh reality these kids face and shows how these programs help to break the cycle, giving people at least a chance.
After reading an article about the child sex trafficking industry, Holly Mosher began to research this seldom talked about problem. During her research, she came across two remarkable programs that work directly with street children in the beautiful coastal city of Recife, Brazil – a worldwide hub for sex tourism.
Hummingbird goes onto the street to see the reality of these kids, and then goes into the programs to see just how these high risk kids can be helped. Although the recovery process is slow – it can be successful.
