Dreamcatcher

Dreamcatcher (2015)

En un barrio del lado oeste de Chicago, temprano por la mañana, un minibús con las palabras ‘Dreamcatcher Foundation’ impresas en sus lados navega por calles tenuemente iluminadas. Las dos mujeres que lo conducen, Brenda y Stephanie, son sobrevivientes de una red de trata de blancas. Frenan el vehículo al acercarse a una chica, Brenda se asoma y pregunta: “Hola linda, ¿necesitas preservativos?” Esta escena inicial catapulta de forma inmediata al espectador dentro del oscuro, desastroso y conmocionante mundo del documental Dreamcatcher.
