The Child Within |
| Synopsis |
Once in a great while a film appears that makes us feel the pull of a higher destiny, not by fulfilling a need, but by creating one. Without need there is no going beyond, so the birth of a new need is not just the onset of a task, but the dawn of an opportunity: the exciting prospect of self-transcendence. What we need is this: a new vision of human potential bursting the vicious circle of supply and demand that circumscribes the lives of women and children all over the world who are traded for cash and trafficked as mere commodities. To disrupt this cycle, we offer this destabilizing product: a film that creates a demand, rather than satisfying one, a demand as essential to the spiritual development of mankind in the 21st century, as the abolition of slavery in the 19th century. The demand that the world be cleansed of the stain of human trafficking. |

Luchia Dragosh Bio |
 |
Born in Bulgaria, she began as a celebrated dancer,
enlivening resorts up and down the Black Sea and the Mediterranean, then became
an actress in Turkey, appearing in music videos, soap operas, and films. She moved to New York City to study
acting at the famed HB Studio, where she won acclaim for her interpretations of
Strindberg and Gorky, in addition to starring in Cable TV's "Foreign Angels"
and directing a segment of Silvana Jakich's independent film, "Underdogs."
A visit to the 2005 Sundance Film
Festival made her see film as the vanguard of a new moral vision. Realizing that the awakening from the
nightmares of the 21st century cannot be forced by the accumulation
of fresh observations of these ongoing horrors, but will take nothing less than
a triumph of the mind in envisioning the victims of these horrors as our
spiritual equals, she wrote "The Child Within."
