ANGELINA JOLIE
TAPPED FOR SEX SHOW
Copyright 2005 MTV Europe
[ February 3rd 2005 ]
Academy
Award winner Angelina Jolie has been tapped to
present an MTV documentary on sex trafficking.
Inhuman Traffic, a 30-minute documentary designed
to highlight the critical human rights issue of
people trafficking across Europe, particularly
the trafficking of women for sexual exploitation,
will air on MTV UK on February 10.
"It
is a tragedy that in the 21st century hundreds
of thousands of people are trafficked and exploited
every year," said Jolie. "I hope that MTV's EXIT
Campaign will empower women and girls in particular
to protect themselves from trafficking by making
informed decisions about their futures, and help
all of us to understand that we have the responsibility
- and the power - to help end exploitation and
trafficking, wherever they occur, in whatever
form."
