Do you know where the prawns you buy in the supermarket come from? If they come from South-East Asia, they may have been harvested by enslaved people. Led by Patima Tungpuchayakul, a woman of unwavering determination, a small group of activists have dedicated themselves heart and soul to the fight against human trafficking. They have already enabled more than 4,000 of these men, reduced to the status of modern-day ghosts, to be reunited with their families after years of silence.
