''Russian Dolls: Sex Trade'' (Dutch: ''Matroesjka's'', meaning Matryoshka doll, also known as ''Matrioshki'' or ''Matrёshki'') is a Flemish drama series about a group of women from Lithuania and Russia who are taken to Belgium by a gang involved in the sex trade to work as sex slaves. The series starts in Lithuania, where the girls are chosen and where they have to sign a contract in Greek, which they cannot understand. The gang, under the lead of Ray Van Mechelen, takes the girls to Cyprus and from there they are taken to Club 69 in Belgium to work. ''Russian Dolls'' is sponsored by the Flemish Audiovisual Fund (''Vlaams Audiovisueel Fonds''). ''Russian Dolls'' is produced and directed by Guy Goossens and Marc Punt. Because of explicit scenes of sex and violence, the program is not appropriate for people under 16 years of age (according to Dutch and Belgian ratings). ==General overview== Although based on the problems associated with the sex trade, the series is not so much a documentary or engaged criticism of those problems as it is a source of entertainment. However, director Marc Punt has said that it wouldn't be terrible if the series made people aware of those problems. Already, the series is used to warn women in the former Eastern Bloc of the practices associated with the sex trade. The program was first broadcast on the Belgian channels Canal+ (now known as "Prime") and VTM. After ten episodes, ''Russian Dolls'' received a viewership in excess of 1.1 million. Other countries picked up the show as well. A deal was negotiated between VTM, Independent Productions, and several foreign commercial broadcasters to make a second season. The second season finished shooting in October 2007 and aired in Belgium in 2008. Thus far, the series has twenty episodes. The British composer David Julyan provided the musical score for the series. The theme song is "Post-Modern Sleaze" by British group Sneaker Pimps. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Russian Dolls: Sex Trade」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
