After a short sabbatical, actress film maker Nandita Das will helm another sensitive subject - that of human trafficking in her new film, Trafficking.
Trafficking is written by Siddharth Kara and the story is a winner of the Cinestory Screenplay competition, which tells the story of three young women from India, Nigeria and Ukraine forced into sexual slavery in a brothel in Italy, where they attempt a daring escape.
Siddharth Kara has been on the boards of several antislavery organizations and he is the first fellow on Human Trafficking at Harvard Universitys Kennedy School of Government.
The movie will be produced by Luca Guadagnino of First Sun Pictures in Italy and Elizabeth Stanley who were pretty impressed with Dass directorial debut Firaaq.
Says Nandita, "The producers approached me at the end of last year and we have been in serious talks since then. I met the writer, Siddharth Kara, in London earlier this year and have been giving my inputs for the next draft of the script.
The pre-production of the film will start after March next year.
