ROSA is a film on the brutal reality of Russian women who, after the fall of the Soviet Union and establishment of diplomatic ties between Korea and Russian in Sept 1990, come to Korea in pursuit of the Korean Dream but are degraded to ultimately become Russian escort girls in the entertainment districts of Seoul. Dreaming becoming a ballerina, Rosa gets a job at a nightclub in Seoul to earn school tuition. She also gets the E-6 working visa through an Korean agent she contacted from a Uzbekistan newspaper. She thought that if I can dance in Korea, I will be able to earn money and become successful. It was a naive dream. Slowing becoming a slave of sex.—Anonymous
