Synopsis
Based on true stories, this is the story of Lakshmi, who journeys from a pastoral, rural village in Nepal to a gritty brothel-prison called Happiness House in Kolkata, India. Through one extraordinary girl's story, this film illustrates the brutality of child trafficking, which affects millions of children around the globe every year. Globally the average age of a trafficked girl is thirteen. This film is a call to action, and a testament to the power and resilience of the human spirit, aiming to inspire a global movement to address this crime domestically and internationally.
