Tariro

Synopsis

Based on real case histories of human trafficking in Britain, Tariro is a hard hitting drama following three women whose lives cross and while established agencies intervene, they don't all have happy endings: one dies and another struggles to adapt.

This harrowing story digs deep into the emotions and lays bare some of Britain's hidden secrets.
