Codirected by Nick Nanton and Ramy Romany and featuring former special agent for U.S. Department of Homeland Security Tim Ballard, Operation Toussaint chronicles the undercover activities of an elite team of former U.S. law enforcement officers whose sole mission is to track down human traffickers and end child prostitution.
Ballard left his government job to dedicate his life to the fight against human trafficking, creating Operation Underground Railroad (O.U.R.) and recruiting other like-minded Special Forces operatives to join him in this crusade.
