Holly
2006 · Film · 114 min
Directed by Guy Moshe
Shot on location in Cambodia, including many scenes in actual brothels in the notorious red light district of Phnom Penh, HOLLY is a captivating, touching and emotional experience. Patrick, an American card shark and dealer of stolen artifacts, has been 'comfortably numb' in Cambodia for years, when he encounters Holly, a 12-year-old Vietnamese girl, in the K11 red light village. The girl has been sold by her impoverished family and smuggled across the border to work as a prostitute.

My naked toddler is not shocking or laughable to me; my point was that with current technological trends I find it likely she will be confronted with it when she's a teen. Its not merely toddler either; its till about age 2 or so. I'm not exactly sure, its our first one.
Also, I am very much going to educate my child that in this world things you do are registered on social media and the Internet, and that pictures of her will be difficult to remove. That would, for example, result in that she'd refuse to get on camera during sex. That's for later though.
As for the picture. Because I genuinely thought I stumbled upon child pornography. It had to do with the pose, that nobody else was on the picture, and probably also some kind of discrimination on my side (the kid was Asian) plus the movie Holly [1] having made a deep impact on me.
