The story of four Nigerian girls whose dream of a better future turned into a prostitution nightmare on the streets of Europe. Recruited from one small animist region in Southern Nigeria, the girls do not only suffer from the horrible exploitation as sex slaves, but have to go through an occult "juju" ritual, which inescapably ties them to their traffickers – until they repay their individual debt of up to _ 60.000. At the hub of this brutal new African slave trade are the so-called ‘Madams’ – Nigerian female pimps, who make the human trafficking business from Nigeria the only major organized crime business worldwide controlled by women. Told through the eyes of Faith, Linda, Betty and Queen, the film focuses on the very personal experiences of the trade’s victims. Through their testimony, Sisters of No Mercy, for the first time ever, sheds light on a new and vicious form of slavery between Nigeria and countries such as Italy, where an estimated one in three prostitutes comes from Nigeria nowadays.
