Production


Tricked is an initiative of 3 Generations, a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization. Tricked is the third film that 3 Generations has made.
The idea for making the film Tricked came in 2010, when director Jane Wells read an article about sex traffickers coercing women into going with them to Miami, where the Super Bowl was presently being held. She explained "that headline caught my eye so I started investigating the subject and interviewing survivors. I gradually came to realize just how big a story sex trafficking is."
The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children eventually claimed that during that Super Bowl 10,000 women and children were trafficked there for sex.




Reception


Tricked: The Documentary received generally positive reviews from critics, having a 71% Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on seven reviews. Jay Weston of The Huffington Post called it a “brilliant, horrifying film.” Slant Magazine called it "quite impressive in its scope and detail."
Film Journal International said, "A sobering portrait of the scourge that dares not speak its name, 'Tricked' deserves its own hybrid classification: the horror documentary." The Hollywood Reporter said it "effectively argues for a smarter approach to prostitution." While The New York Times explained that "Tricked . . . presents the sexual exploitation of young women as a systemic cancer that feeds on public misconception as much as male appetites . . . a film that tenderly details [survivors'] experiences, it was somewhat, however, more critical."
The reviewer Jeanette Catsoulis of The New York Times recommended the making of a sequel, adding that, with regards to the people involved, the film “tenderly details their experiences but leaves topics like poverty, lack of parental insight, childhood damage and low self-esteem off the table- more than enough for a sequel.” Russell Simmons of Def Jam Records calls it “eye-opening, a shocking revelation of what happens in the streets every night in cities across the country.” There was also much praise from victims within the sex trafficking community. Danielle Douglas, a sex trafficking survivor, stated, "I am so grateful to have had this opportunity with 3 Generations. Not only does 3 Generations tell my story accurately and honestly, they do it with the drive for awareness and support."
