註釋

'Turned Out' is a thrilling urban drama based on and inspired by the true story of a young, Ethiopian woman. Deetee, and her mother are caught in the middle of a dangerous territorial battle waged by Warlords virtually ruling the country. The only way to escape the nightmare is by paying large sums of money to a ring of villainous smugglers who transport refugees across the border. Deetee must leave her mother behind and makes it safely to America. Once joined with her aunt in Buffalo, NY, their urgent mission is clear: raise the money needed to get Deetee's mother to safety in America - before it's too late. Facing hard choices, she's lured north across the border into Canada, in a seemingly chic social scene of the glamorous, powerful and wealthy, but soon discovers that she has really been thrust into the sinister world of "High Society Escorts" - a world no less dangerous than the one she escaped from.
