Coming Soon: 'Hiding in Plain Sight'
In an alarming response to the escalating crisis of sex trafficking, Our Rescue has announced the upcoming release of a compelling documentary titled
Hiding in Plain Sight: America's Trafficking Epidemic. Directed by the accomplished filmmaker Nick Nanton, the film aims to shed light on the often-overlooked yet prevalent issue of human trafficking within the United States. This important documentary will be available for streaming starting October 30, 2025, on the platform DailyWire+, and it will be offered for free to audiences seeking to understand the brutal realities surrounding trafficking and exploitation.
The Issue at Hand
Sex trafficking is not a distant problem confined to the pages of a novel or a plot device in movies; it is a grim reality that permeates communities across the country. The documentary powerfully illustrates how this dark underbelly affects individuals, particularly children, who are disproportionately impacted. Featuring authentic survivor testimonies, insights from law enforcement, and expert analysis,
Hiding in Plain Sight aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the crisis and highlight potential solutions for combating this urgent threat.
Derek Benner, CEO of Our Rescue and former Executive Associate Director of Homeland Security Investigations, expressed the urgency of addressing this epidemic by stating, "Sex trafficking and child exploitation cases are rising across the U.S., and the victims are often the most vulnerable among us, our children. This film is a wake-up call. It challenges us all to recognize the signs, confront the crisis head-on, and join the fight to protect our communities."
A Glimpse Behind the Curtain
Director Nick Nanton emphasized the objective of the documentary was to unveil the uncomfortable truth that trafficking is not just happening abroad but is also a serious issue on American soil, often hidden in plain sight. The film is part of Our Rescue's ongoing commitment to raise awareness about trafficking and to support law enforcement agencies in their fight against such heinous acts.
Mike Richards, President and Chief Content Officer of Daily Wire Entertainment, remarked on the film’s importance for families, stating, "This film could save your child's life. Predators don’t lurk just outside anymore—they reach directly into your home through phones and social media. Even the most vigilant parents can have their child targeted. Every parent in America needs to see this film."
Through this initiative, Our Rescue and DailyWire+ hope to educate families about the red flags and the pervasive nature of trafficking, arming them with knowledge that could potentially save lives.
