This is a must see look at lives of prostitutes in different countries around the world. The saddest monologue is from a young Pakistan prostitute who asks how in god's world can there be no place for her. She sees her future clearly and realizes that she has no hope of the simple dreams of a marriage and family. The overview is blunt and non judgmental. Mainly it is left to the prostitutes to discuss their own experiences.

As well as eye opening--although this 'should' already be known but sometimes one doesn't quite understand until they 'see' it--account of what hell on earth truly looks like from the POV of Prostitutes from certain countries (probably isn't this bad in some countries but this is a probably a good mean average for a lot). Really interesting how the filmmaker shot this; it almost felt like I was watching the movie "Kids" (1995). Interesting how the one woman from Mexico said she loved the life style--as Nina Hartley has been in * for so long because she has said multiple times how much she loves the lifestyle--but this viewpoint is, I'm sure...very rare. The hypocrisies and contradictions throughout this movie were funny because it made you see a truth of how messed up and misinterpreted everything can be. A brilliant documentary! My only criticism is that sometimes it feels like you're watching "Laguna Beach" or "The Hills" (more so in Thailand than anything, but it's understandable in some way that questions had to be asked and situations had to be understood--such as the guy coming into the room to have intercourse in Mexico). You feel the worst for the Bangladesh girls as that truly was hell on earth. And when the one girl talked about how life for girls should be better than this, you want to yell out loud and say, "It is!!" Sometimes it's not ones fault where they are born or how they are simply born into the lifestyle. Sometimes one gets dealt a bad hand with their life from the beginning...and that's absolutely when you need God the most...because you have to believe the afterlife is a better place!

...but it is important. It has stuck with me, & over the years, I've thought about these women. If a movie sticks with you, then it succeeded. And this movie succeeded. Any reviewer who didn't "like" this, missed the point. And as for that "top" review, who said the film makers didn't delve into the prostitutes lives enough, what makes you think their profession didn't dominate their daily existence? Sex work would taint bonding with others, except for the small few that share in their mutual destruction (other prostitutes, other addicts, etc). This is an important movie, everyone should watch. (And how can you be have the top review with 36 down votes?)

Might be my favorite documentary of all time - it really makes you feel the sorrow behind these poor women.

Many of us tend to forget how lucky we really are living like we do, having the opportunities we have. This documentary is a powerful way to remember it. For once, a documentary about prostitution that can be compassionate without being condescending. A must watch.

"Whores' Glory" is a German/Austrian co-production from 5 years ago written and directed by Michael Glawogger, a filmmaker who died from malaria during working on one of his more recent projects. This is also why I wish I could go more easy on his work here, probably the most famous film of his career. Sadly, I must say this only had a few good moments and unfortunately not enough for pretty much exactly two hours. The film examines the level of prostitution in several parts of the world including Latin America and Asia for example. I must say though that there were no real differences. The only real differences came from the personal approach that all the prostitutes gave the subject and their profession. Only very few seemed to have no problems at all with it, most of them were suffering, but they needed to do it for the money. And this made it a very tragic watch. All in all, I think this documentary would have worked better if it had been kept at 90 minutes max and maybe focused only on one specific area of the planet. This way he could have given a deeper insight and we may have learned something that goes beyond the surface. Not saying this film doesn't, but it certainly could have been a better film in my opinion. My expectations were not fulfilled looking at the IMDb rating and also at other critics reviews. So my suggestion is that you watch this if you are really interested in the subject or if you come from any of the regions depicted in the film to get a realistic approach that you probably would not have otherwise. Everybody else can skip it I guess. Not recommended.

I guess it doesn't get much more real than this. And it's a very depressing world for these women – particularly the segment in Bangladesh. We are shown actual film footage inside these brothels. The customers give their reasons for the visits. This is no glamour portrayal of these women – and the men who visit them. One brothel is in Bangkok and it would be the most "upscale" one we are exposed to. At least the women go out to eat and do some shopping. I somewhat question the ethics of the Bangladesh segment. Obviously many of the girls were underage. One was being recruited with no chance of leaving for over a year. As a warning the entire film is depressing – but these parts were squalid and brutal and showed extreme exploitation of minors – by women I would add. But as I mentioned this is as it is. The final segment is in Mexico and at least the women were older (or most of them). Also we are shown other aspects of this "business", as in drug addiction. One woman is obviously high, and others take crack. I have to give the film-makers credit for going into this world. One role of a documentary is to unmask another world – and this it certainly does. And a film on this type of prostitution should be depressing.

I had this movie in my instant queue for quite some time, but it never seemed to be the right time to watch. However, today as I scrolled through the 200+ long list of movies, I stopped over the title, and decided to go ahead and watch. It's always easy to judge someone based on something you know nothing about. Many people seem to think that all prostitutes are crack-heads or alcoholics, they think they're the scum of the universe; this movie shows you different. The movie gives us an almost one-of-a-kind look at the lives of these ladies, one that you aren't likely to get without going out and experiencing it personally. It shows you women who are wives and mothers, girls who are selling themselves to be able to afford to take classes in another vocation. It shows us that many of them share the same hopes and dreams many of us have; to have a good life and not have to worry about where your next meal will come from, to fall in love. I'm not naive enough to think that all prostitutes' lives are the same, but that just goes to show that you shouldn't stereotype. If you were a young woman and your only choices were to either live on the street and starve to death, or sell your body for just enough to get by, what would you do? What if selling your body was the only way to get money to feed your children? Overall a very poignant film which I enjoyed, I would recommend it if you're not offended easily by sexual situations.

And, as the saying goes.... "What's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?" *Be Warned!* - Whores' Glory is an extremely stark and vivid "human-nature" documentary that (due to its sad, depressing, and startlingly candid subject matter) is certainly not going to appeal to everyone. Filmed exclusively in Thailand, Bangladesh, and Mexico - If you've ever been curious to know what a *'s life might be like, then here's a professionally presented production that'll certainly open your eyes to all of the ins & outs (pardon the pun) of such a down'n'dirty business as that of the prostitution trade. Competently directed by German film-maker, Michael Glawogger - My one big beef about Whores' Glory has to do with Glawogger's choice not to document the ways and means of whores both in a European setting, as well as a glimpse at all of the slutty action in America, too. I personally think that that would have given the viewer a much more rounded perspective on the "world's-oldest-profession" as it exists today. *Special note* - While visiting Liberia, film-maker, Michael Glawogger died in 2014 (at the age of 54) from malaria.
