In some cases, parents prostitute their children for the same reason. Kids from "better" families are selling themselves for hefty sums in order to finance addictions or even just to buy jewelry or clothing. TRICKS is informed and inspired by living near Las Vegas-a big teen prostitution scene-and by the fact that teen prostitution is not exclusively the result of kids running away from abuse. And figuring out what sex and love are all about. These are five moving stories that remain separate at first, then weave together to tell a larger, more powerful story-a story about making choices, taking leaps of faith, falling down, and growing up. What they don't expect, though, is all that can happen when those powerful little words, "I love you," are said for all the wrong reasons. for freedom, safety, community, family, love. All living their lives as best they can, but all searching.
"When all choice is taken from you, life becomes a game of survival." Five teenagers from different parts of the country.
