Filipina women, some as young as 14, dance on a stage for men who visit from North America and Europe in search of sex in the town of Angelese City. Many Amerasian and Eurasian children are born to these women who then grow up without knowing their fathers. Over 30,000 Filipina women are now stuck in the sex trade what is expanding due to cyber sex tourism.
