BUTCHER
Behind every screen,
a captive life.
THE PROJECT
A crime without borders.
A deeply human cost.
Inside Myanmar’s scam compounds, people trafficked from abroad are held captive and forced to defraud strangers around the world. Pig Butcher explores the human cost on both sides of the screen: those coerced into committing the scams, and those whose trust and lives are shattered by them.
Now under production at Hiranyagarbh Motion Pictures.

The people behind the screens.
UN human-rights reporting documents trafficking, confinement and coercion in scam operations across Southeast Asia, including Myanmar. People lured by promises of work can find themselves forced to target others online. This documented reality forms the background to the project.
