Last month we learned that Lindsay Lohan traveled to India to participate in a documentary film created for the BBC, tentatively titled Lindsay Lohan’s Indian Journey, where Linds lends her starpower to raising awareness of the horrors of child trafficking. Today we get our first look at Lindsay in this documentary, scheduled to air on BBC this year. Here is text from a BBC press release on the documentary:

“Lindsay Lohan travels across India to meet the people involved in child trafficking, in a bid to understand and reveal both sides of this shocking trade. Lohan, as part of this documentary meets young boys in Delhi who work 16-hour days under the constant threat of beatings, for a fraction of an adult wage; and a reformed trafficker who would make a quick buck luring young girls away from naïve parents with offers of gainful employment. Lohan also visits Sundarbans in rural West Bengal, where poverty is made worse by annual floods, to find out why a parent would send their young child away to work; a shelter in Kolkata where young girls promised domestic work for India’s burgeoning middle classes were trafficked into brothels and forced into prostitution.”

Firstly, I have to reiterate how impressed I am that Lindsay would choose to appear in an important documentary film like this. The horrors of child trafficking should absolutely be exposed in an effort to save young lives. That said, I find it extremely difficult to see and hear Lohan in this film speak with any bit of authority on the issue. Without question, I sincerely doubt she knows anything about child trafficking outside the prep work handed to her before she made her trip to India. I cannot, for the life of me, imagine that Lindsay either cared or bothered to research the matter at all before she was approached for this documentary. I could be wrong, considering I cannot be sure what she did or didn’t do, but I’d be willing to wager a lot of money that I am right. After the jump, check out the video clip of Lindsay Lohan’s Indian Journey for a sneak peek at what’s in store when the doc is shown on the BBC later this year …

While her heart is definitely in the right place, my fear is that her mere inclusion will make a mockery of the message … which may fall on deaf ears. True, the only reason any of us even know about this doc is because Lindsay Lohan is in it (and perhaps that is the best boon of all for the production) but, as I said, I for one cannot take her pontifications on child trafficking seriously in the least. I wonder if anyone else can.
