Bangkok Girl

Jordan Clark's tragic documentary provides a glimpse into Thailand's notorious and booming sex tourism industry through the experiences of a 19-year-old bar girl named Pla. Working in the bars from the age of thirteen, Pla has managed to avoid selling her body a remarkable revelation given her surroundings but her refusal to take part in this all-too-common profession for young Thai women cannot last. The introduction of falangs, or foreigners, to Thailand has forever changed the city, the economy, the Thai people's lives and desires. A daring and unabashed look at a popular Western predilection through the eyes of one girl, this film challenges the accepted worldwide practice of sex tourism. A newly mastered DVD of Bangkok Girl is now available. The main feature has subtitles in English, French, German, Japanese and Spanish. Also included: extended version with 8min of additional footage, trailer, deleted interviews and montages. Produced by High Banks Entertainment Ltd. and CBC Newsworld
