Traffik (film)

On their way to a secluded house in the mountains for a weekend getaway, young couple Brea and John stop at a gas station. In the restroom, Brea encounters a dishevelled, scared-looking woman named Cara who nonsensically mentions the Fourth of July before being ordered to hurry up by an angry biker. Meanwhile, more bikers begin harassing John outside, who responds by hitting one of them. The biker pulls out a knife but the scuffle is stopped by Sheriff Marnes who warns the group to stay away. Their leader, Red, later berates them for drawing attention to themselves. The couple arrive at the house and spend a romantic evening together, which is interrupted by their friends, Darren and Malia, who arrive unannounced. Brea discovers a phone in her bag and realises Cara must have put it in there. Remembering her Fourth of July comment, Brea figures out the passcode and unlocks the phone; they discover hundreds of photographs of battered women posing for ads, indicating they are all part of a trafficking ring. Following an argument about what to do with the phone, Malia becomes upset and leaves. Suddenly, Cara arrives at the house and asks for the phone back. Brea reveals she has seen the photos and offers her help, but Cara becomes angry and flees. Brea, John and Darren attempt to follow her, only to find Red and the bikers outside. When Cara tells Red she was unable to get the phone, Red shoots her dead. The three run back inside the house and Darren demands that they give the phone back. He also finds Malia's bag and realises they have taken her. Darren attempts to make a deal with Red, but the bikers kill him. Brea and John run to a nearby house but are chased by two members of the gang who kill the owner of the house and then attack the couple. During the struggle, John is stabbed and succumbs to his wounds. Brea manages to kill one of them before fleeing. Outside in the woods, Brea is captured by Red. Sheriff Marnes arrives with a deputy who are responding to a phone call John made earlier. Marnes shoots the deputy dead, revealing herself to be part of the trafficking scheme, then sedates Brea. Brea wakes in a hidden location with many other trafficked women, including Malia. Red begins to sexually assault Brea before she sticks a nail in his neck and bludgeons him to death. The last biker attacks Brea but Malia overdoses him with the sedative. As Brea leaves to get help, she promises Malia she will come back for her. Leaving the woods, Brea finds herself back at the gas station. She asks the clerk to call the police. Brea also swipes a cell phone and calls her boss Carl for help. Marnes arrives and attempts to arrest Brea for the murders. Brea asks if Marnes takes any pride in trafficking women for profit, to which Marnes responds that everything is trafficked and she is just part of the system. Marnes cuffs Brea, only for a squad of cops to show up (called by Carl). Marnes is arrested, and the police rescue the trafficked women. == Cast ==
