GIRL MODEL

September 7th, 2012

GIRL MODEL- 2011. Synopsis by Netflix. “Documentarians Ashley Sabin and David Redmon take an unflinching look at the modeling industry, focusing on a conflicted American scout — herself a former model — who recruits poverty-stricken adolescent girls from Russia to work in Japan.”

Rotten Tomatoes had this to say- “Told through the eyes of a 13-year-old Siberian girl and the American scout who discovered her, Girl Model follows a complex global supply chain of young girls sent abroad to seek their fortunes in the unregulated and often murky world of the modeling industry”

9/7/12- Good early reviews in general but a review in today’s NY Times is weak. TRDB.

5/1/13- A very good documentary exposing the lies and deceit involved in this industry. TRDB. Netflix Streaming.
