This is a pretty depressing film about a father's search for his mentally-slow daughter, who is kidnapped and forced into prostitution. Sort of an Italian version of that movie HARDCORE except that film was about a decade away from being made. While often referred to as a giallo, it really isn't at all. It exists outside the giallo or typical police action flick and falls into a more realistic dramatic category that leaves you feeling pretty down by the end despite the revenge that is dealt out. If you can handle the downer vibe it's worth checking out though. If there is one aspect that is pretty unrealistic it's that I've never seen a retarded girl that looked like a super-model before, maybe that's an Italian thing though.
