Anonymously Yours is a documentary film by director Gayle Ferraro, released in 2002. It documents widespread abuse and exploitation of women through sexual slavery in Myanmar. It was filmed secretly in November 2000 on location in Myanmar, with interviews with prostitutes, their families and social workers. The film was then smuggled out of the country.

The film follows four women trapped in the sex trade. The film is notable also for describing the practice of dunking prostitutes into leech-filled pools for hours, then removing them and harvesting the leeches, which are sold as a delicacy. Women are used instead of animals for this practice because the animals are considered too valuable. In addition, under-age prostitution, sex slavery, sex tourism and human trafficking are also discussed.

The first scene of the film is a reenactment of a kidnapping. A girl is kidnapped and brought to the apartment of a criminal organization, where she is confined with other girls in a room with a creaky ceiling lit by a flickering lightbulb. The girls are naked and cry from fear as men examine them and shout commands and threats at them. One girl is dragged away into another room. The girls are then brutally abused until they become sexually submissive. These events take place in a small European town, possibly in Moldova. The film asserts that 10% of the population of Moldova has been sexually trafficked. From there, the film tracks the girls through Serbia and Croatia to Amsterdam's red-light district and markets in Berlin and Las Vegas. Among legal prostitution in cities, the slavery goes undetected. Slaves are depicted in confinement, at their places of work, and as they are sold. Many of the girls are orphans and all are either initially kidnapped or tricked into forced prostitution. The methods that the traffickers use to keep the girls include hard drugs, mind control, and both sexual and physical abuse.

Ce film dépeint les pratiques cruelles et déshumanisantes de la traite des êtres humains et de l'esclavage moderne à l'échelle mondiale. Filmé sur cinq continents, dans une douzaine de pays, "Not My Life" emmène le spectateur dans un monde où des millions d'enfants sont exploités via un panel stupéfiant de pratiques, incluant le travail forcé, le tourisme sexuel, l'exploitation sexuelle, et les enfants soldats.
