PARADISE HIGHWAY – Interview with Writer Director Anna Gutto

Writer/Director Anna Gutto delivers a taut thriller that tackles the harsh realities of those impacted by sex trafficking.  Anna talked with our Gadi Elkon about the filmmaking process, her tremendous cast, and so much more.

Academy Award® winners Juliette Binoche and Morgan Freeman lead this riveting thriller set in the trucking industry and its seamy underbelly of human trafficking. To save the life of her brother (Frank Grillo), Sally (Binoche), a truck driver, reluctantly agrees to smuggle illicit cargo: a girl named Leila (Hala Finley). As Sally and Leila begin a danger-fraught journey across state lines, a dogged FBI operative (Freeman) sets out on their trail, determined to do whatever it takes to terminate a human-trafficking operation — and bring Sally and Leila to safety.

Writer/Director Anna Gutto talked with our Gadi Elkon about her amazing cast, the real life truck drivers that helped mold the story, her team and so much more!
