“Trafficked” (*** out of four) was a searing, engrossing story about two young girls (Elizabeth Rohm and Kelly Washington) who are abducted and sold into the sex-trafficking business and enslaved in a brothel in Texas where they become friends with other inmates and make a daring attempt to reclaim their freedom. Almost nail-bitingly intense at times and all-too-real and well-captured by its cast and by director Will Wallace, even if the subject matter is often hard to watch. Both Ashley Judd and Sean Patrick Flannery are terrific in change-of-pace and key supporting roles.
