The Day My God Died is a powerful documentary telling the stories of several girls in India suffering from human tracking and sex trade. It is successful at appealing to the emotions of its audience by looking at the unique stories of the girls at a personal level, by getting to know their lives before, during, and after they were sold as sex slaves. The striking images of actual girls makes this documentary even stronger, and the testimonies of these young girls creates a more effective way of setting forth this issue. It should also be noted the important figures presented in this documentary gives it more credibility.
Although it may be accidental, the documentary presents us with the question whether countries like the United States would take a stand against these problems in outside countries but at the end, it leaves us with a strong message. The aftermath of these girls provides the audience with a feeling of hope, but it also encourage the viewers to contribute in some way, starting by getting informed.
