*mild spoilers ahead*
The young daughter of a businessman disappears, and he hires a detective to look for her. The detective discovers that she was in a pornographic movie, and shows it to the girl's father, who is shocked. The detective continues his search, but is eventually dismissed due to a lack of results, after which the father himself sets out to find his missing daughter. He begins to investigate the underworld of pornography, and, having obtained some photos of the other actors from the film in which his daughter appeared, he starts looking for those people in the hopes some of them can provide some information about his daughter's whereabouts. He persuades a prostitute to help him in his quest, in exchange for a pay.
Despite its potentially shocking subject matter, this film failed to ellicit any kind of emotion in me. The progression of the plot is quite predictable, and the dialogue and characters are not very interesting. It seems to have been thoughtfully written, in regards to the social and psychological issues which it tackles, and which are not devoid of interest in themselves, but somehow the end result just does not come across as particularly realistic or insightful.
Rating: 32
