Shocking Documentary Film on the problem of Child Protective Services (CPS) and the forced placements of children in Switzerland.
5 years of investigation and production, filmmaker Omar Agustoni in collaboration with Sandrine Babel , has just released the documentary "TREES OF SHAME", which premiered online November 24, 2019. The film documents the history of child trafficking in Switzerland through Child Protective Services and the Juvenile Court system, with riveting interviews of former and current victims.
While Simonetta Sommaruga, former President of Switzerland and the current Minister, allegedly apologized for past crimes of child trafficking against the Swiss people by the Swiss government in April of 2013, where many of these children labeled "orphans" were trafficked as child laborers, "TREES OF SHAME" documents how these crimes of child trafficking still happen TODAY.
Duration - 97'min
