Girl Model

I recently watched a a documentary on Netflix about models and the career of a model in Siberia and Tokyo. Throughout the documentary you follow around two girls in the video mainly. One is a girl named Ashley who is a former model and she is now a modeling scout. She recruits girls from Siberia and then sends them over to Tokyo to hopefully have more luck over there. They also follow around Nadia who is a thirteen year old girl who is chosen by Ashley to be sent to Tokyo to start a modeling career. The movies shows all the struggles and how extreme and messed up the system really is. They are shoving in to girls into Tokyo and just hoping there model career might take off if they are lucky. It makes you realize how horrible it is and yet still no one is making a change or even trying.
It starts off by showing the girls in the modeling process and thousands of girls going though the process and trying to be chosen to be sent to Tokyo and hopefully start a career.

When you first follow around Nadia you see how bad her home life is. Living in Siberia her home life is really bad and they have very little money and are barely getting by. When they find out that Nadia is being selected to go to Tokyo her family gets extremely excited and has a celebratitory dinner. With the money the company told her she is gonna make with the jobs she is garanteed she can send home and help her family. They send her over a plane by herself to Toyko to start her career she is guaranteed to make money on. She gets lost in the airport because she doesn't understand what anyone is saying at all and she has no way to translate it. The people filming her actually end up having to help her because she is so lost and confused. When she finally gets to Where she is staying you see how small and horrible the living conditions are. She the next day is picked up by a guy who takes her from place to place to see what people want her to model for her. You find out that they lied and there isn't jobs for them right away and so they have nothing. She also didn't have any extra money so another girl model is paying for her to eat while she is there. She doesn't understand like what anyone is saying and is really confused.
