Invisible Hands exposes child labor and trafficking within the supply chains of the world's biggest corporations and demands to know why top stakeholders continue to engage in this unlawful and deadly practice. Filmed across six countries, the documentary offers a harrowing account of children as young as five years old being sold into slavery to make the products we buy and consume every day.
The New York Times by Jeannette Catsoulis
Rich in information and dense with quiet outrage, Shraysi Tandon’s debut feature, the investigative documentary Invisible Hands, jumps into the murky and shameful world of child trafficking and forced labor.
The Hollywood Reporter by John DeFore
Modest in aesthetic terms but more jounalistically serious than many low-budget advocacy docs, the film will be an eye-opener for some, and should add to pressure on executives to stop pretending they're innocent of the crimes contractors commit on their behalf.
Los Angeles Times by Katie Walsh
The lack of a strong narrative through-line makes for a film that is informative but dry. Nevertheless, it is an urgent plea for us all to make conscious choices in our consumption.
With Invisible Hands, filmmaker Shraysi Tandon has made a damning expose, and a documentary piece of advocacy journalism.
