Playground 

When: Wed., April 11, 7 p.m. 2012

According to the 2009-released, George Clooney-co-produced Playground, 300,000 American children have been forced into the sex trade, an "internet-driven cottage industry." View the five-minute trailer at playgroundproject.com, and you'll be compelled to see the whole documentary at 7 tonight at Stargazers Theatre and Event Center (10 S. Parkside Drive, stargazerstheatre.com/playground-film), sponsored by local advocacy group Let Them Have Faces. Organizer Amanda Reynolds says this form of slavery is happening right here in southern Colorado, and that several local organizations are fighting it. Learn more about them by grabbing tickets for $8.50. — Matthew Schniper
