IT’S OKAY is a thriller built on shadows—the things we see, the things we don’t, and the
things we refuse to confront. It’s about survivors who walk among us, carrying the weight of the past in ways no one else can understand. It’s about the systems that try torehabilitate them, but fail to erase what’s been done.
This is not just a story about human trafficking or trauma—it’s a story about resilience, identity, and the terrifying realization that even after escape, the past is never truly behind you.
