"Lives for Sale" <www.livesforsale.com> is a one-hour investigative documentary that
exposes the painful, rarely seen human side of illegal immigration including the growing
black market trade in human beings. Human trafficking is the world's third most lucrative
illegal commercial activity, generating an estimated $8 billion/year in profit. An estimated
27 million people are living in slavery around the world today. This film was created by
Maryknoll Productions, a division of the Catholic Foreign Mission Society of America.
