This paper discusses the phenomenon of trafficking of women for sexual exploitation, using as reference the intersectionality theory. Based on a case study, we analyze the experiences of a Brazilian woman victim of human trafficking. The evidences found in this study clarify what the literature points out as the association between social structural conditions of inequality and vulnerability to trafficking for sexual exploitation
