Stolen is a drama about a sex-trafficking escapee and her struggle to
transition back into normal life. It soon becomes clear that although
physically free, she will never be the same again. Stolen follows the
physiological trauma of someone who has been stripped of her most
basic human rights, whilst giving insight to just how willing the
majorities are to turn a blind eye to trafficking. A story of second
chances and the improbability of recovering from acute sexual abuse.
