Caught in the Net
A controversial experiment with three young women on social media documents the sickening reality that many children face on the internet. A Czech film team casts three younger looking actresses over the age of 18 to appear as 12-year-olds on the Internet. Three realistic girly rooms are set up in a film studio, with psychologists and experts ready, waiting in the wings, and the girls placed in front of a computer each. As soon as they are logged in on various social media, it starts pouring in. In just 10 days, almost 2500 flashers and child molesters try to get the girls to take off their clothes over the webcam, to blackmail them, or to meet them in real life.
