Image Credit: Perojevic Marina had been abandoned in the jungles of Colombia by kidnappers and ended up learning how to catch rabbits and birds with her bare hands in order to survive. Eventually she was discovered by hunters who sold her to a brothel from which she later escaped. She spent several years on the streets before being finally taken in to work as a maid for a family in her mid-teens.

Marina's remarkable story is being published for the first time in the form of a new book and later a television documentary aimed at highlighting the plight of those caught up in the horror of human trafficking in South America.
