This indie action flick doesn’t seem like an immediate contender for controversy, but it has been linked to high-profile conspiracy theories. What’s the evidence behind the claims?August 31, 2023 1:06 pm, the Mexican director Alejandro Monteverde’s new film about child trafficking, without any prior investigation, you may not notice anything untoward., presented in horror-movie format . Though it is an indie with a budget of $14.
The film has had a long, tortuous journey to the big screen. It was first optioned by Fox, which was then bought by Disney in 2019, which shelved it during Covid. Then it was bought by the Christian production house Angel Studios.
Monteverde met Ballard shortly into the development of the project and obtained his life rights. Though the film is fictionalised, many of the events are based on real life, including Ballard’s posing as a sex tourist in Cartagena, Colombia, pretending to set up a luxury sex hotel in order to rescue more than 50 children and frame a group of traffickers.
“Our job,” says Ballard at the start of the film, “is to get the paedophiles, and that’s it” – a worthy aim, but arguably a rather reductive summary of the trafficking webs that exist in reality.
