    • Synopsis
    • ‘Labeled’ is a provocative eight-episode docu-series following Andrea Heinz, a former dominatrix and escort who spent 7 years in Edmonton’s licensed commercial sex industry. In 2010, Heinz was invited to travel to Las Vegas by a wealthy surgeon. After being stopped and interrogated at the border, she was documented as a ‘prostitute’ and issued a ban from the United States of America. Since exiting the sex trade in 2013, she is now a wife, a mother of three, and an outspoken activist against the industry. The series captures Andrea’s fight to have the US Government lift her ban and remove her label so that she can take their children to Disneyland.

      Labeled pulls back the curtain and offers a comprehensive in-depth look into the sex industry. The series takes the viewer on an unforgettable journey into the nuanced topic of commercial sex from an economical, emotional, and social standpoint. Each episode examines specific aspects of an often-hidden world. Interviews include current and former sellers and buyers, politicians, police, advocates, family members, and more.
